Teva Tovmasyan
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Retired or Inactive Players hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. Tovmasyan doesn't field his position well. Tovmasyan is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Tovmasyan has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Tovmasyan as a pinch-runner on occasion.
