Is there a table of opposite abilities such as fat pitch vs safe pitch?

I don't think so, but give me a second and I'll list as many as I know.

You can only have one level of the multiple scale abilities like Clutch 5 and VS Lefty 2. This includes things like Good Catcher and Great Catcher.
Battler and Poker Face.
Breaking Ball Pitcher and Power Pitcher.
Fat Pitch and Safe Pitch.
Good Small Ball and Poor Small Ball.
Groundball Pitcher and Flyball Pitcher.
You can have both, but I'm pretty sure having Gyroball cancels the effect of Shuuto Spin.
Lucky and Unlucky.
In the last tab, there are several different abilities that have "Patient" and "Aggressive" versions, like hitter, runner, fielder, steal...

I think that's pretty much all of them...

I think that the only "aggressive abilities" in the last section are hitter and stealing. There's also Gd/Pr Rain, Gd/Pr Day, and Gd/Pr Night, but those are very useless.

And there are the abilities that can be upgraded to 4. Like Clutch Hit 4 = Clutch Hit 2, Clutch Hit 5 = Clutch Hit 1.

Thanks for the replies. My main reason for asking was to find a way to improve players in season mode that have red (lacking) ability such as fat pitch or RISP 2. Maybe some negative abilities can't be fixed???

On an unrelated note, what is a good way to build up owners points in season mode? Even when I play and not sim games and blow out teams I only get 300-600 points a game and sometimes my total goes down.

I don't think you can get rid of red abilities in season mode.

A good way to build up owner points is to have a low salary and to go far in the playoffs. That may seem obvious, but that's the easiest method. You get 50,000 just for winning the World Series

Or you could unlock and buy the season bonuses in the shop.

But I don't think those work if you've already started a season mode

And the bonus isn't enough to help if you don't really know what you're doing.

For example, even with the bonus, you can't just keep the Yankees full roster for year after year without winning the World Series or running our of money.

This is kinda off topic, but I don't know if I love or hate this about Power Pros. No team is restricted with money, but at the same time, you can't go crazy. So a team like the Yankees isn't able to dominate free agency, because A. They don't have unlimited money and B. Other teams are able to sign big free agents.

Does that make sense to anybody?

Yes, it makes sense. It is always easiest on cash if you do an Expansion Team. It's harder to keep your money on a regular team.
