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!

This is my latest Success pitcher. I wasn't aiming for anything really here, he turned out to be average. To me, he profiles best as a decent long reliever with his side arm delivery but his blue abilities make me feel that if his stamina/top speed is worked on, he could be an okay #4/5 starter. He'll get some groundball outs with his sinker and Groundball P plus he'll eat up some innings. The ORG is a slider with some break.

No relation to Luke, but he can only hope to not be a bust like him.

A few I gambled on (Spin 4/Groundball Pitcher), others I bought (Gd Reflexes + W/RISP4 + FB Life 4). The rest (vsL4/Recovery4/Gd Pickoff) came from games/random events.

Better than average. That dude will be a Zach Duke-like mini-beast in simulated games.

Well, in the top spd/control/stamina departments, he isn't great, but I think I made up for it with all the abilities I picked up.

Anyway, thanks Eric.

Between the abilities and the kickass beard/moustache combo, he should be pretty good despite the top speed being low and the control/breaking balls being average.

I love the action-shot you got of him pitching the ball.
