This is also true for any overhand pitcher.Ī Palm Ball is a straight change up by any other name. They can also put a late tailing action away with the right pressure and grip. To the point about submarine pitchers being able to cut the ball in on the hands of a same handed batter, they can if they have the right pressure and grip. Submarine pitchers can throw good curve balls and when done right the ball looks like it's coming from behind the back of a same handed batter. There's no reason to create a separate category for "submarine curve balls." If submarine pitchers, because of their delivery, can't throw as effective a curve ball as overhand pitchers can, then, in OOTP terms, that just means submarine pitchers will get bad ratings for their curve balls. If your pitcher has more good pitches, his stuff increases - more pitches make it difficult for a batter to adjust. a sinkerballer induces more ground balls, which is shown by the pitcher tendency, he could be an extreme ground ball pitcher. Other things are integrated in the stats - f.ex. You need to know that a starting pitchers needs either 3 solid pitches or a knuckleball, or his performance will suffer. An ace can get really impressive performances on a good day with pitching around, but even if he does not walk many, his pitch count will increase.īut to the original question: For you, it doesn't really matter which pitches the pitcher does throw. I use it against dangerous hitters, if there are RISP and I'd take the walk to make a DP possible, and if my pitcher has great control, so that his walk rate is sustainable even if pitching around. "Pitch around" is throwing more off the plate, more walks in exchange for more strikeouts. In the final inning, if I lead by at least 2 runs - any baserunner is bad, there is little difference between the guy walking and homering, in both scenarios the tying run is someone else.Ī low-power hitter with no one out or a man on first only - he's unlikely to homer it out, and a walk and a single are comparable outcomes, so he should earn his base hit.
#Left handed submarine pitchers free
The bases are loaded - don't want a free run there. However, this leads to more hittable pitches. "Pitch to Contact" means that your pitcher is supposed to throw strikes and don't walk the batter, no matter what happens.
