Paddy Fawver
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching He's a finesse pitcher, relying on movement and location. Fawver has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Fawver also has a decent changeup. In his first taste of the majors, he has kept righthanders in check but wasn't as effective against lefties.
Defense & Hitting Fawver is nothing special in the field. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Fawver is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Fawver has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Fawver as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook If Fawver doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
