My 4th gyroballer now, named after the NFL star. I'm pretty sure I have made the most gyroballers in '08 now.
Cool.
He's not as good as David Wrong, but he is still very good.
Anyways, here are his stats:
Top Speed: 100 mph
CTRL: 138 C
STAM: 74 D
B/T: L/R
Tigers, #81

SHU 3
SCB 3
CCHG 5
ORIG 6
(Forkball, named CCHG for mindgames, Longball714 gets credit for the name.)

W/RISP 4
VS. LH Batter 4
Poise 4
Gd Low Pitch
Dr. K
Gyroball


Go to my Photobucket account to check him out.
Btw, I'm focusing on fielders for a while now, Apple4960 and I are making our own arrange team.
Feel free to rate him, give me tips, whatever.

Great player. Love the CCGH/FORK mindgame. Only real weakness is lack of "strong finsher"

thanks
never gotten that ability, always passed it up for Dr. K...
I only get 2 surprise bags each time, i get GR from 1, I try to get Dr. K from the other so I get Good Low Pitch from the SoP from Patty.

Yeah, i've never done a success pitcher (i've only made one lousy catcher!) but in 07, i felt that strong finisher was better for closers and the back end of the pen, and Dr. K was better for starters and the front end.

he doesn't have the abilities and stamina of Wrong, but he has a better variety of pitches.

Yeah. But one or two good pitches are fine on a closer. He only pitches an inning or two, so he doesn't have to keep hitters guessing or anything.

Post subject:  Re: Torry Holt, Wii CL (Gyro)

yeah.
plus, since wrong is lefty, he and Holt make a great 1-2 L-R punch.

Good point. The game won't let you have two closers, though (at least 07 didn't) so i guess you just use one as a set-up?

Post subject:  Re: Torry Holt, Wii CL (Gyro)

i guess.
and neither does '08.
but yeah, the other can be the main setup guy.
any other comments, ratings, etc.?

7/10. He doesn't need quite as many pitches, and a closer really needs strong finisher.

Post subject:  Re: Torry Holt, Wii CL (Gyro)

all right.

Post subject:  Re: Torry Holt, Wii CL (Gyro)

8/10, either you want a high or a low control, and in the middle is a slight downgrade. still, I know it's hard to get good cores and an ORIG and Gyro.

getting Gd Low Pitch from SoP was a waste. (1), you can get it from a game, (2), you can buy it for points.

Other than that, very nice job. He would be dominant in MLB, especially with the double CCHG (thanks for the credit, btw). Next time, you can call it a pitch from a different direction and your friends will be like, "What the f***, that shuuto just dropped!" :lol:

8/10
Weakness is that no Fastball life
A good arsenal of pitches
top speed checked

Post subject:  Re: Torry Holt, Wii CL (Gyro)

wouldn't gyro make up for Fastball life?
and btw, gd low pitch is really expensive.
