Emerson Gravitz   Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. His composure needs work. When Gravitz starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He is an extreme flyball pitcher and gives up more than his share of doubles and home runs. 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, Gravitz's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders. Defense & Hitting With a decent slide step and his constant attention to the running game, Gravitz limits the damage done by basestealers. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. Gravitz is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Gravitz has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Gravitz as a pinch-runner on occasion.           -- Moostard Nyman
