Craig Titus
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching God, who doesn't love a knuckler? I saw a slow-motion version of one of his pitches on TV, it's no wonder they're unhittable! He can get groundballs when he needs them in a jam. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
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. Titus is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Titus has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Titus as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Titus isn't cutting the mustard in the low minors. It's time for Craig to investigate other career options, like coaching highschool ball. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Titus.
