Rich Hunter  
Starting Pitcher | Anaheim Angels

Pitching
Hunter can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. His stuff becomes less sharp as he gets into the late innings. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Hunter, and that's saying a lot. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.

Defense & Hitting
His slow delivery makes him fairly easy to steal upon, but Hunter helps himself by holding runners with throws to first, and with slide steps and varied deliveries to home. Hunter is nothing special in the field. Hunter is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Hunter has some pop in his swing.
