Tyrone Sowden
Starting Pitcher | Grand Rapids Red Dogs
Pitching He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Sowden's fastball is a tick above average, in the 90-91 MPH range on most nights. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Sowden's move to first base is average. 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. Sowden is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Sowden has some pop in his swing.
