I'm going to knock out the other righty pitchers that shouldn't have Vs Lefty 4, since guys have trouble with that. Davis is next on my list, so just proactively scouting here.

Davis is a tough nut to crack...he's been all around, starter, reliever, starter, reliever. He's been good, okay, sub-par, fantastic, crappy, and then record-setting (1.00 ERA last season?!?! wow). He's definitely not Vs Lefty 4 material - lefties hit 30 points higher off him. Here's my guess:

top speed 98-99. He has touched 99 but averages 92.8!
ctrl - BB/9 career is 3.4, which is average-ish, so I'm aiming for 125 or so here.
stam - Another guy who averaged barely over 6 innings in his career as a starter, so I am aiming for 130-135, swing man?

2SFB 1-2
Cut 2
SLD 2
CB 2-4
CHG 1-2

I'm going to be very open to blue abilities like release 4, fastball life 4 or Good Low Pitch
Consistency 2 if I happen across it, to reflect his year to year fluctuation
He's been excellent in the post season, 1.25 ERA in 15 games, so if theres a clutch pitching ability I'll grab it

Please provide any comments or thoughts/improvements!

Oh man, I started him and got poor sense with 83mph and a slider lvl 1. Gonna just build up a bunch of points and then try to improve sense with Sittch or Frank. 83 and a pitch really help out in the first game - only allowed 1 hit in 7.1 IP.

I did Davis as an SP...I'll get his stamina to at least the 100-110 level so the Rays can use him however they see fit. Then I have space to create or add 25 more pitchers, and 25 more hitters...and I have the 50 guys that I want on a spreadsheet already!

Starting with poor sense is handy.

The MonMonMonkeys are entirely lefties...making getting thru without Vs Lefty 4 the toughest battle of the game. But if you can bean or walk everyone until you are pulled, and pile up scout/coach points using other methods, all will be fine.

Wade Davis started with Poor Sense and I NEVER got past it. I bought all his upgrades with poor sense...one gamble the entire time. Pitcher-making is an art, and I've got it down.
