Terric McFarlin
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching McFarlin also has a decent changeup. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. He tends to fall off slightly to the first-base side of the mound, making him vulnerable to bunts toward third base. He makes up for that minor flaw by being aggressive in fielding his position. McFarlin is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but McFarlin has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use McFarlin as a pinch-runner on occasion.
