Daniel Smothermon  
Starting Pitcher | Charlottetown Blues

Pitching
Smothermon's bread-and-butter pitch is a devastating sinking changeup that he'll throw to any batter in any count. Smothermon can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. 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. Smothermon is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Smothermon has some pop in his swing.

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