Based off 86 what will 99 Rivera look like
-
I am guessing Mariano will get a Sig Series for his best card. So they can kinda take liberties with it and juice whatever pitches/attributes they need to
-
Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to capture his dominance in this game but I have to imagine his /9s, cutter control, and clutch will be at the maximum or close to it

Honestly I can’t see him being in my bullpen no matter how high a rating he is. Unless he has an OP sinker or something. That’s hurts too, cause he’s one of my favorite Yankees ever.
You’re saying there will be at least 7 relievers that are clearly better than a 99 Rivera?

It’s not about being better, it’s about the pitches. That’s all that matters in this silly goose game. I’m sorry but fastball and cutter will get smashed against good players all day.

Hope his cutter is nastier. Everytime I throw it, no matter how well I hit my spot, ends up over the fence.

Cutter sucks in this game. If you miss its a home run if its perfect perfect.....50 50 chance its a home run.
-
A 2-seamer to run the opposite direction of his famous cutter.

Cutter is actually a good pitch in this game. Obviously, if you miss, it’s going like every other pitch you hang, but the whole point is to not throw it down the middle.

Nah man ive thrown cutters perfect and good hitters still hit it solid

I suspect he will almost mirror last year’s Jansen, who was very effective.

Good hitters will hit anything solid. As long as the cutter doesn’t land in the middle of the zone, it can be a good pitch.
I faced a really good player earlier today and the cutter was one of the most effective pitches against him. It kinda depends on the pitcher too. If a pitcher has a good slider and another good offspeed pitch, players will often be looking for those and not the cutter.
