Bret Sachs  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Retired or Inactive Players hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He attacks lefties and righties the same way.

Defense & Hitting
He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. He's slow to get off the mound to field his position, especially to the third-base side. Sachs is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Sachs has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Sachs as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
If Sachs doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
