Frank Murray  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His changeup isn't bad... he fools his share of hitters. Murray can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His pitches lose some movement when he pitches from the stretch position. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
Murray's move to first base is average. 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. Murray is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Murray has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Murray as a pinch-runner on occasion.
