Nathan Zubak
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Zubak, and that's saying a lot. When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Zubak's curveball tends to hang. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. Zubak is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Zubak has some pop in his swing.
2025 Outlook What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Zubak to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Zubak.
