This is my third guy in the set of real players I have been making.
Bartolo Colon, #40, is a right handed pitcher...
I used a "scouting report" from the start of 2008 to get his pitches.
"Colon's repertoire includes a four-seam fastball,a sinker, and an occasional change-up. His sinker is his bread and butter pitch and he throws that more than the rest of his pitches combined."
Stats
Crtl-C (149)
Stam- B (127)
Top Spd-94 mph
Sink-3
Chg-1
Fld-C (10)
Arm Str-C (10)
E Res-D (9)
Abilities
(I didn't give him many abilities because he is an aging pitcher)
-VS LH Batter
-Release 4
-STR Finisher
-Battler
-Durability 4

How is he not on the game? He's a Cy Young winner.

I do believe he is in the game. He just wants to create his own rendition of him.

Did you hear about how he basically ran away form his contract with the Red Sox and went back to his home country to avoid it in mid-season?

No, but what does that have to do with anything?

He did that recently, and it was because he didn't want to come back as a reliever. Definitely doesn't make it right, just stating why he did it.

Hey, I know I'm bumping an old thread but I have some Q's and a couple complaints.

What did you use for his pitching style?

Not tryingt to say you made him badly but:

He shouldn't have Durability 4, he has struggled with some major injuries.
He also throws a Slider.....

Um...
1. Don't remember
2. That was an accident :|
3. I found that out after making him...

Post subject:  Re: Bartolo Colon (real player)-Wii

Sorry to hear that, I made my own if you want him. His Slider is decent and it's a smae...

I managed to get Durability 2 after a badjob, that I kept.....

Since this original version was a bit off, and Dr Mario never posted any of his passwords, I will be creating a new 2008 Wii version of Bartolo Colon.

RobHallett's PS2 version was this:

Quote:
Bartolo Colon

Number: 40
SP
B/T: R/R
Team: White Sox
Control: 158(B)
Stamina: 147(B)
Pitch Speed: 93mph
Pitch Types:
Slider(ORIG): 5
Change Up: 3
Born: 24 May 1972
12 Years Experience

Abilities

Fastball life
Gd low pitch
STR finisher
Gd Reflexes
VS L batter 4
DR K
Release 4
Poise
Recovery 4
Gd Pick off
Gd delivery
battler


wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartolo_Colon
FanGraphs with pitch type: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?pl ... #pitchtype

My version is aiming for:
age 35
top speed 93
Control: 138
Stamina: 100-110(C) (He's not the complete game type anymore)
sinker 3/4
slider 2/3
change 1/2

some blue abilities, to denote his success and Cy Young award history

red abilities:
durability 2
hot head or other, to indicate how he left his Sox contract in '08, and left MLB after '09 despite 4.12 ERA.

Please comment or add thoughts.
