Lucy is useless for hitters, btw.

The Wiki page is looking good :wink:

We need to start working on the individual player pages. All of the players link to their individual page, but most of them haven't been written yet. The red looks really ugly. :?

1. I made Bellamy's page.
2. The first middle reliever should be a starter, just because his control is a D doesn't mean he can't be a starter for now.

Okay, Today, I'll try to get up to speed. In the mean time, how about one of my starters (the worst one):
Hawaii Islanders Scouting Report
Lao Xi-Chen (SP)
Xi-Chen, an immigrant who grew up in Zhengzhou, China, would not be considered the best pitcher on the team, but he holds his own. He has slightly above average breaking ball pitches, and his delivery has his opponents guessing. He has almost no control on his pitches, but it is helpful because of fastball with speeds reaching over 90 miles per hour. Both right-handed and left-handed batters could not handle his fastball. Xi-Chen is a great pitcher, but his skills don't really seem to stand out in this team.

Well, first off, are we having six or five starters? Is DeVore on of them? Because, if you put Carroll up and DeVore counts, then we're done. I made a sixth pitcher, except it's named after my friend (well, he's not so much my FRIEND :lol: ), so I'd rather not put it up.

I don't think we should count DeVore as a starter. So, yeah, make one if you want.

I'm thinking your guy has a wicked V-SLD. I don't know why. Maybe a horizontal pitch as well to jam hitters. Don't worry about control, it would actually be good if he had little CTRL, because it would make it harder to guess a) where the pitch is and b) what the pitch is. TOP SPD doesn't have to be too high, but I guess mid 90's if you can. STAM, use your judgment.

Okay, I'll stop there before this sounds too much like a player request (too late. :) )

I think that we should have a starter with A stamina and a very high (97+) top speed, just because all of the other starters (except Apple49600 have only B stamina and only 91 mph.

Sjax, I know you have plenty of gyroballing relief pitchers, you should add them on.

all right, i'll start him today.
does this sound right?:
TOP SPD: 95-98 mph
CTRL: D
STAM: High B-A
V-SLD: 6-7
SLD/H-SLD/CUT 6-7
KNCB/SNK (u tell me): 5-7.

Gyro or Intimidator?

All right, maybe i can add Hernandez, possibly Clarke.
