Steve Dreyer
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching The Free Agents 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. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Dreyer, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. When you throw a curveball, it better break. Hanging curves equal earned runs in this league, you just can't get away with them. Unfortunately, Dreyer's curveball tends to hang. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. Dreyer is nothing special in the field. Dreyer is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Dreyer has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Dreyer as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2010 Outlook What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Dreyer to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Dreyer.
