Jamie Bluma  
Relief Pitcher | Kansas City Lords

Pitching
He's a good late inning man, which is when being a pitcher really counts. His slider is sharp and breaks both horizontally and vertically. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
He's reasonably quick to the plate but needs to vary his pickoff moves. Good baserunners appeared to time him last year. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Bluma is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bluma has some pop in his swing.
