Blakely Vanderveen  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
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 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. His windup, though, makes him an easy target to run on. Vanderveen is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Vanderveen has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Vanderveen as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Vanderveen has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
