Moe Wydeven  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Wydeven also has a decent changeup. 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 tends to work slowly when in a jam, which just makes his problems worse by lulling his fielders to sleep. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He's almost as effective against righthanders as he is versus lefthanders.

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. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Wydeven is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Wydeven has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Wydeven as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Wydeven isn't cutting the mustard in the low minors. It's time for Moe to investigate other career options, like coaching highschool ball. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Wydeven.
