Candy Perez
Starting Pitcher | West Bay Red Skulls
Pitching Perez is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. His curveball is solid; he throws it better than your average starter. Perez has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is only fair. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Perez is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Perez has some pop in his swing.
