Yeah i have wrong who by the way is an amazing pitcher and no offense to stevenjackson but it doesn't rise

none taken.
glad you like my guy, though.

anyways, how does the rising upgrade actually help any pitch?
it's not like we can make a forkball break upward...
what does it actually do, just decrease the vertical break?
if so, then i should have upgraded wrong's slider differently (and hernandez's, and clarke's...).
unfortunately, when i tried a slider with an edge (for andre rodriguez), i didn't notice any difference other than a little less break (It's level 5).

Well, I think that the "Rise" feature is more for pitches with downward motion. I think the Rise just gives it more hang like I said before, but nothing else. Maybe kind of like an epheus pitch? LOL! But yes, everything else is pretty much straight forward, with the sharper cut or what not.
