Carlos Chavez  
Starting Pitcher | Cincinnati Reds

Pitching
Chavez can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Chavez also has a decent changeup. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. 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, Chavez's curveball tends to hang. He attacks lefties and righties the same way.

Defense & Hitting
His move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. Chavez is nothing special in the field. Chavez is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Chavez has some pop in his swing.
