Kadeem Pomroy
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Pomroy also has a decent changeup. The Retired or Inactive Players hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting He's average in terms of controlling the running game. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Pomroy is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Pomroy has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Pomroy as a pinch-runner on occasion.
