Jim Dougherty  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His changeup isn't bad... he fools his share of hitters. Dougherty has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. 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 composure needs work. When Dougherty starts getting hit, he gets mad and loses concentration. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Dougherty, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He's trying to develop a sinker, but as of yet it's been well below par. He continues to have trouble getting lefthanders out.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is merely average. Dougherty is nothing special in the field. Dougherty is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Dougherty has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Dougherty as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2010 Outlook
Dougherty flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Dougherty.
