Power Pros Forum

So here's what I have:
94 Top Speed
119-126 CTRL
119-138 STAM
Pitches:
2SFB 1
SLD 2
CHG 1
Specials:
Fastball Life 4
Recovery 4
Fat Pitch
W/RISP 2

Any other opinions?

FB/SLD/CHG via Fangraphs
SNK/SLD/CHG via Cube
Decent control
averages 90-91 MPH
GB Pitcher (50% through 2012 i.e. 138.1 IP)
Was helped by Pirates defense at times
Using his SNK (?) more in 2015
Throwing his pitches harder this year
Should have C-B stam

His "Sinker" is thrown using a 2SFB grip, so I'd rather give him a 2SFB.
Already gave him Fat Pitch, good GB rate but it has been decreasing each year

OK LGM is making another hitter or two, and I love pitchers, so I will take this guy up.

Throwing the posts together, with B-R and Fangraphs, I get:
94 Top Speed (came out throwing 94 in 2010, and is always around 93.5-93.9 since, except one year hitting 95…)
126-135 CTRL (career BB/9 of 3.0)
120-125 STAM (under 5 1/3 IP when he was a starter, and been in relief for a couple years now)

Pitches:
2SFB 1 OR SIFB 2-3. This is the conundrum - it sinks, yes, but it has more x-Mov than z-Mov, almost double. Similar to Dillon Gee, but I caved on him and went 2SFB. What to do here? Definite leaning to SIFB.
SLD 2
CHG 2 - this is tough because it really has a TON of horizontal movement, which has me thinking CCHG…It's his best pitch. Hmm.
CB 1 - used like 5-10 x a season, so rare, but it's a go-to with two strikes against righties for him.
CUT 1 - only used one year so not important…even LESS than the CB, hah.



Specials:
Fastball Life 4 - uhhh no. hitters hit .292 off the fastball.
Recovery 4 - ok!
Possible Good Delivery to reflect the low BA against the change up? hmm
Good Pickoff is a borderline..he had 1 pickoff each season from 2010-2012…its only 50 IP or so…probably not enough to warrant…No!
Release 4? Career steal success is 65% against him, so he's doing something right
Groundball P (yeah the sinker especially)
Fat Pitch - don't think so, HR/9 is under 1…that's the typical cutoff, right?
Sandbag might work as a general mark of a bad pitcher
W/RISP 2 - yes, career LOB is 71%…not mandatory, but if I can safely, sure
