Roger Salkeld  
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
Salkeld also has a decent changeup. If you're going in to face Salkeld, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is only fair. Salkeld is nothing special in the field. Salkeld is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Salkeld has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Salkeld as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2010 Outlook
If Salkeld doesn't perform, the Retired or Inactive Players won't hesitate to send him down to the minors. I just don't know if The Retired or Inactive Players are ever going to get what they expect out of him.
