Mike Headrick  
Relief Pitcher | Cobourg Stampeders

Pitching
Headrick's bread-and-butter pitch is a hard, two-seam fastball that rides in on righthanders' fists. His slider is sharp and breaks both horizontally and vertically. Headrick has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. Headrick has had a tendency to fall victim to big innings. He comes right after righthanded hitters, who are lucky even to reach base against him, but he works more carefully to lefties.

Defense & Hitting
He has quick feet and can catch runners napping at first or second base. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Headrick is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Headrick has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Cobourg Stampeders have been known to use Headrick as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2024 Outlook
Headrick is ready for the big time. The Cobourg Stampeders will call him up as soon as they can figure out who to send down. I don't say this often, but I'll say it for Headrick: he's one of the highest rated pitchers on my scouting sheet.
