Felix Padron
Relief Pitcher | Vancouver Orcas
Pitching He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. He has an above-average changeup and the ability to throw from a variety of arm angles. 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, Padron's curveball tends to hang. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. 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. Padron is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher.
