Leo Culnane
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's a finesse pitcher, relying on movement and location. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. 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.
Defense & Hitting He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Culnane is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Culnane has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Culnane as a pinch-runner on occasion.
