Josh Stephan   Relief Pitcher | Val d'Or Sharks Pitching He keeps the ball down and gets a lot of groundballs. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against righthanders as he is versus lefthanders. Defense & Hitting Stephan does an average job of holding runners. Stephan is nothing special in the field. Stephan is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Stephan has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Val d'Or Sharks have been known to use Stephan as a pinch-runner on occasion. 2025 Outlook The Val d'Or Sharks signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Stephan like a hot potato if something better comes along.           -- Ska Nyman, A-Ball Scout
