Crese Ropac  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Ropac can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Ropac's move to first base is average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Ropac is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Ropac has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Ropac as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
If Ropac doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
