Jamie Matthews  
Relief Pitcher | Yellowknife Bluenotes

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for 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. Matthews is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Matthews has some pop in his swing.
