  • A's Daily News Clips; Sunday, March 6, 2011 Change of Delivery
    A’s Daily News Clips; Sunday, March 6, 2011 Change of delivery helps Oakland A's reliever Brian Fuentes make right career choice By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune, 3/6/2011 PHOENIX -- A's reliever Brian Fuentes finds an unconventional way to get hitters out. That's fitting considering his baseball career has unfolded in unusual fashion, too. Fuentes, a key newcomer to the A's bullpen, didn't even start pitching until he was a senior at Merced High. From there, he moved on to Merced Junior College, thinking a career in forestry was more likely than one in baseball. Fuentes was drafted in the 25th round by the Seattle Mariners. But his career didn't take off until he converted to a sidearm delivery, one that A's teammate Brett Anderson describes as "funky." You can't argue with the results. Fuentes, 35, made four All-Star teams with the Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Angels, and his 183 saves since 2005 are the most in the major leagues among left-handed relievers. "I would have had different mechanics if I was able to," he said. "It was a blessing in disguise, having an unorthodox delivery." As Fuentes pushes off the mound, his throwing arm lags behind his body before he whips the ball toward home plate. That makes it difficult for hitters to pick up the ball. Fuentes had 24 saves and a 2.81 ERA during a 2010 season split between the Angels and Minnesota Twins. Perhaps most important to the A's, he didn't allow a run in 15 outings against American League West opponents.
