Ashton Stark  
Starting Pitcher | Cobourg Stampeders

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Stark can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He's reasonably quick to the plate but needs to vary his pickoff moves. Good baserunners appeared to time him last year. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Stark is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Stark has some pop in his swing.
