Byrd Still  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. Still 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. Still also has a decent changeup. He's almost as effective against righthanders as he is versus lefthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. He hurts himself by falling awkwardly off the mound in his follow-through, which allows too many balls to go through the middle for base hits. Still is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Still has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Still as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
AA isn't the right place for Still. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down for some minor retooling. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
