I decided to give Rick Ankiel a second position, pitcher. Gave him an E in 2nd Position Pitcher, 17 G for Control, 35 E for Stamina, 84 mph top speed (was 94-97 when he pitched), Drop Curve level 1, and Sinker level 1. For pitching abilities I gave him Safe Pitch (because of all his wild pitches), Choke Artist, Walk, and Unlucky. Any opinions?

I'd be he could still hit 90 mph. His problem was all in his head and he shows a good arm in the field right now.

what breaking pitches?
saw an article on the front page of http://www.fangraphs.com, and it showed a chart that looked like he had more than just a fastball.
you tell me.

MLB.com's gameday page had each pitch listed as a changeup so I didn't give him any pitches.
