Joe Sherry  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Though Sherry can't just blow the ball by hitters, he has some giddyup on his fastball. Sherry 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 attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Sherry is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Sherry has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Sherry as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Sherry has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
