Ray Eisenstat  
Relief 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 Eisenstat, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
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. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Eisenstat is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Eisenstat has some pop in his swing.

2010 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Eisenstat to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Eisenstat.
