Clevelan Slovinsky  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Now he's the consumate ground-ball pitcher, which I love: ground balls never leave the stadium. He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Slovinsky's curveball tends to hang. In his first taste of the majors, he has kept righthanders in check but wasn't as effective against lefties.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. 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. Slovinsky is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Slovinsky has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Slovinsky as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
If Slovinsky 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.
