Harry Reams
Relief Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching Reams has to keep the ball down, especially against lefties, or he gets hit hard and often. 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. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Reams, and that's saying a lot. He continues to have trouble getting lefthanders out.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is merely average. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Reams is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Reams has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Reams as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2010 Outlook What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Reams to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Reams.
