Forum rules


Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Go to players, click on the first two letters of your player's last name, and you get a lot of stats.
VERY USEFUL TOOL:
Scroll down to the bottom, and you can find how often they throw each pitch. most likely, if they throw an XX pitch, it's a SNK or SIFB.

I've used this to help DrMario and Sparkplug (i think), and it is extremely useful.

You're welcome. 8) :mrgreen:

oh ok, wasn't sure.
and that is good for control and abilities, but I didn't see anything about what percent of each pitch he throws.

when you get to the player's page, scroll all the way to the bottom.
