* 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.

I wish the pitch selection was better, but hey, with stats and abilities like that who cares?

Completely in awe! SF96 salutes MrWelz on such an awesome pitcher!

You could have saved the STAM which you don't need and just get a SCB or something. He is a Closer... :wink:

He said he would make a good gyroballer, but I knew better. I knew he would make a godly gyroballer. A closer who can pitch 5-7 innings if necessary.
I think a long reliever would be better suited to him but they don't get used as often. But closers don't usually get chances to hit.

I was going to leave stamina at C, (still high but I didn't want to disappoint anyone that wished to use him more than just a closer) but I suddenly ran into Goodjob successfully.

I only made him a closer because I was just trying to get Gyroball and Intimidator.

As for the pitch selection, I wanted his main pitch to be the sinker,(because he's sidearm) so I didn't give him all the fancy breaking pitches, like curve, knuckle etc.

Jesus, Welz, this is incredible. I thought no one would make a better B-Stamina closer then I did. Actually, I really just didn't think anyone else would make a b-stamina closer like I did haha, but if someone else would, it would probably be you Welz.(good job allowed me too). I am envious, this guy is spectacular. I know the threads kind of dieing out, but would you be willing to help me make a hall-of-famer team? Who else could make Babe Ruth?

Keeping stamina down on any pitcher is hard, especially if you want to get good points from coach/scout during games. Pitching many innings is key to getting many strikeouts, which I believe is the biggest key to large experience points during the game. True closer stamina, would require tremendous amount of practicing just to play in the games during your AAA year.

The pitcher I created last night, by the end of my AA year already passed the coach requirements needed to start for AAA, and scout requirements to get recruited into the majors. Having the computer, pitch a perfect game with 17 strikeouts, netted me 13 coach/26 scout.

Thanks Mr.Welz.

My own time is so limited lately, I havent been able to finish my own gyroballer yet, and I started him the day the Gyro was announced found... so thank you for supplying a great guy I can try the gyro out with in the meantime. Mine should be done before 09 comes out...maybe...

I did the same with Satan once last time and I barely missed the coach evaluation then but maxed the scouts. At least I think so because I made it by a milimeter when I first saw the expectations after I practiced twice more with a coach. I don't know how you two do it, your guys are great. Smiley Face, I found it really entertaining when I was looking at your Stallions yesterday and the HUGE difference between your more recent players and your first 4 or 5. I guess something clicked (like discovering the Gambler's ring) because they started being great since then. Once again, great Job Mr. Welz.
How early do you guys get a gambler's ring?

Thanks everyone.

I guess I could try to make Ruth next.

How good do you want him?

(At this rate, I don't think I'll ever finish my success mode character team) :(
