Darren Dreifort  
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
Dreifort also has a decent changeup. The Free Agents 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. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
He has a fair pickoff move and isn't a particularly easy target for basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Dreifort is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Dreifort has some pop in his swing.

2010 Outlook
It's really a shame he hasn't caught on somewhere. He might be a decent addition to someone's bench.
