Tellis Balderas
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching If you're going in to face Balderas, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. But Balderas, do us a favor. Stop throwing that changeup. It looks like a beachball. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His windup, though, makes him an easy target to run on. A shaky fielder, he's slow to react to grounders and often looks unsure on his throws to the bases. Balderas is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Balderas has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Balderas as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook Balderas flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Balderas.
