Shane Reynolds  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Reynolds is a control pitcher; when he's on he has pinpoint control. Reynolds likes to get hitters looking down and away, then ties them up by coming inside with hard stuff, getting a lot of groundball outs. His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Reynolds also has a decent changeup. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success. He absolutely loves playing before the hometown crowd.

Defense & Hitting
His move to first isn't very good, but his delivery is fairly quick and he isn't overly vulnerable to the stolen base. Reynolds is nothing special in the field. Reynolds is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Reynolds has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Reynolds as a pinch-runner on occasion.
