Roberto Hernandez  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. The Retired or Inactive Players 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. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is only fair. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Hernandez is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Hernandez has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Hernandez as a pinch-runner on occasion.
