Robbie Riske  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. His composure needs work. When Riske starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He fields both bunts and slow groundballs in front of the plate equally well. He's average in terms of controlling the running game. Riske is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Riske has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
I can't say I know what The Free Agents were doing locking this guy up to a long term contract. A questionable call at best. I just don't know if The Free Agents are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
