Billy Brewer  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
He struggles with his command at times and is still learning to mix his pitches and set up hitters. He can hit 90 MPH but is too smart to try to get his fastball past most hitters. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He's almost as effective against righthanders as he is versus lefthanders.

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