Bud Taubensee  
Relief Pitcher | Regina Pirates

Pitching
Taubensee throws a nice sinker... The rookies never seem to know when it's coming. Because he can't overpower hitters, Taubensee has to fool them instead. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. A fluid delivery leaves him in good shape for fielding, and he has a reputation as a competent defender. Taubensee is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Taubensee has some pop in his swing.
