Bill Wolfe  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He attacks lefties and righties with similar success. He struggles away from home.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. 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. Wolfe is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Wolfe has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Wolfe as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Wolfe 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.
