Bud Clark  
Relief Pitcher | Kansas City Lords

Pitching
He throws his curveball from several different arm angles, and the curve absolutely devastates lefthanders. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
He's average in terms of controlling the running game. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Clark is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Clark has some pop in his swing.
