Art Tessdale  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. 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. Tessdale is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Tessdale has some pop in his swing.

2025 Outlook
The Free Agents signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Tessdale like a hot potato if something better comes along. It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
