Scouted out of China, Ishida is a submarining righty reliever, well suited to middle-relief or mop-up roles.
Description
My first custom reliever for my Charlotte Chargers 2008 team, Ishida is a slight improvement over last year's version, who was an injury risk and sat unused in AAA. That version topped out at 88mph and was just filler; by the end of my team's creation, there was little chance I would ever call him up.
This year's Shengjun Ishida is much more dynamic, incorporating a submarine delivery of his sliding shuuto pitch. He also has a good palmball and decent sinker. The unusual delivery and odd movement of his pitches create the possibility of using him in a variety of roles, from middle relief to mop-up or long man stints. I have incorporated him into the bullpen mix to showcase another delivery, and to have a realistic mix of ethnicities in my bullpen (last year had an abundance of white guys).
