Charlie Smith
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents
Pitching If you're going in to face Smith, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Smith, and that's saying a lot. He frequently leaves fastballs up in the strike zone, where they get pounded. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Smith is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Smith has some pop in his swing.
2010 Outlook What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Smith to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Smith.
