Danjai Beem
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Beem has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. Beem 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. In his first taste of the majors, he has kept righthanders in check but wasn't as effective against lefties.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. A shaky fielder, he's slow to react to grounders and often looks unsure on his throws to the bases. Beem is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Beem has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Beem as a pinch-runner on occasion.
