* 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.

My thoughts:

Top Speed 96
Control 120
Stamina 145

2 Seam Fastball 2 Or a sinking fastball at level 3?
Slider 3
Curveball 3
Changeup 2

Spin 4 – I say yes, slider has a .207 BA against it, curve is at .202, 2 out of his 3 off speed pitches tell me he could have Spin 4.
Release 2 – Looks good to me, SB attempts, 24 for 29 in 2014, 7 for 9 in 2013, 9 for 12 in 2012, 11 for 15 in 2011, 11 for 12 in 2010. (80% SB success)
Recovery 4 – Yes

Vs Lefty 4 – No, lefties hit him better
Fastball Life 4 – No, .252 BA against it
Groundball Pitcher - No
Dr. K - No


W/RISP 2 – He should have this 68.8 career strand rate
Poise 4 – He was decently good in 2014 and was 9th in Cy Young voting, and if we give him W/RISP 2 then this could balance help him

Or should we ignore these 2 abilities all together because he's been good for the last 2 seasons

I say SIFB 3 for the sinker, it has about one inch of drop compared to his fastball but four inches of run

yes to Spin 4
yes to Release 2

as for w/RISP 2/Poise 4, I'd say no, sounds needlessly complicated and they'd end up countering each other a lot of the time

For the W/RISP and stuff that's exactly what I was thinking haha. That combo doesn't make that much sense to me anyways

How about updating ol' Jake?
My thoughts...going off of 2014 and 2015 exclusively.

TopSPD 98
CTL 180
STAM 152
Original SiFB*3-4
Hard Slider 4
Slurve 5
Splitter 5

DrK
Spin4
Release2
RiSP4
Star
Lucky

*I've been doing an Original SiFB with more edge to mimic the type that real life pitchers throw. It comes in just 2 mph slower than the FB

I would be willing to update him, unless you wrote here to claim him first. Not a problem to me.
The only issue with original pitches is you can't upgrade them in other modes (from what I remember), which is why I stay away from them

I started working on him. And I'd forgotten about the inability to upgrade the original pitches, that's a good point. Haven't given him one yet so maybe I'll rethunk that.
