Marv Davis  
Starting Pitcher | Toronto Blue Jays

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Toronto Blue Jays 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. This man owns lefties. Put it this way, if your lineup is full of them, you might want rethink your lineup.

Defense & Hitting
Though he lacks a good pickoff move, he checks the running game with a compact stretch delivery. Davis is nothing special in the field. Davis is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Davis has some pop in his swing.
