Pitching
Casian also has a decent changeup. His composure needs work. When Casian starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. If you're going in to face Casian, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Casian, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. 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, Casian's curveball tends to hang. He changes speeds well enough to keep righthanders from teeing off on him.

Defense & Hitting
For a lefty, his move to first base is average at best, and he has a tendency to forget about runners at second, thereby creating opportunities to swipe third. Casian is nothing special in the field. Casian is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Casian has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Casian as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2010 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Casian.
