Felipe Lira  
Starting Pitcher | Minnesota Horde

Pitching
Lira's control is among the best in the game. He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.

Defense & Hitting
He has a quick pickoff move, but sometimes concentrates on pitching so much that he forgets about runners. He gets off the mound fairly quickly and his throws to first are hard. Lira is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Lira has some pop in his swing.
