While Tucker has spent the majority of his career as a closer, he has been working this off-season on building up his pitch count so that he will be ready to throw more innings come spring-time. His velocities are as follows: FB 82-83, SL 74-75, CH 71-72 (Verified).
Aside from his play on the field, Perry has also been coaching for the past 5 years and will bring plenty of knowledge to any organization that he commits to.
