Arnoldo Vanwagner
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching A groundball pitcher, Vanwagner needs to have sharp command to succeed. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! If you're going in to face Vanwagner, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Vanwagner, and that's saying a lot. He traditionally fares better against lefties.
Defense & Hitting Vanwagner is agile on the mound, though he makes needless errors when his concentration wanders. Vanwagner has a lousy move to first, and opposing managers will run against him all day. Vanwagner is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Vanwagner has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Vanwagner as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Vanwagner.
