Cliff Percival
Starting Pitcher | West Bay Red Skulls
Pitching Percival can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. He generates few groundballs, though he keeps the ball in the park. He tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting A decent fielder, Percival is quick around the mound and has good instincts. His pickoff move is only fair. Percival is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Percival has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook Percival performance in AAA is making it difficult for the West Bay Red Skulls to ignore him much longer. Expect his name to be on the September call-up list. I really like what this guy brings to the table.
