i know what you're thinking: "Not another Gyroball topic!"
but this is different

has anyone taught a pitcher gyroball in practice?
any conditions if you have?
hints?

Yep. Ive learned Gyroball in practice in season mode on a few guys. I use the techniques practice items, and group 3 or 4 pitchers together and set them all to learning Gyro at the same time. It took only 60-70 games to learn it on one guy. For some reason a few learned faster then others.

Tim Lincecum with Gyroball is fun :D

It's amazing how overrated Gyroball has gotten just because its harder to get. Its the same thing with star which last year I think was more of a nuisance and very hard to avoid getting.

i've been trying to teach him specifically, actually.

and its only overrated for pitchers with a top speed under 95 mph.
