It took me a couple games to get used to his delivery with that leg kick of his but I’ve become really good with him. Very accurate & solid pitcher. I’ve only given up 1 run my last 3 starts with him.

I'm really needing him to be a mainstay in the rotation

Just be patient with him. Allow yourself 4 or 5 starts before you judge him....That’s one of my biggest problems with this forum is it seems people will use a pitcher ONE time & if he gets lit up they immediately sell him & come on here blasting about how bad he is. And sometimes that’s not the case, Sometimes you just play people that are amazing hitters. That’s why I always say give yourself several outings before making a ruling. Good luck.

He has great control with all his pitches. Game was on hof and even had 5 strikeouts in a row at one point. Sinker and cutter has more movement than kluber. When my opponent did make contact it was weak. Only thing I don’t like is his stamina. Wish it was higher so I could go CG easily but I can understand why (prospect card). Obviously this was one game, but by him dotting it I feel like he is a must have at this point in the game

Well, i try to mix the sinker, cutter, and curve; the advantage with this pitcher is the 99 break and 99 velocity, so you can confuse the opponent with velo and breaking balls.

Curve and cutter move a lot? Worried about the lack of a slider and cutters catching a lot of the plate

Would be better if he has a slider, but the cutters inside the zone, at least for me has been solid, and the curve works fine. The weird wind up helps, because that leg doesn´t allow to watch clearly the release point.
I forgot to mention the change, that can be effective too. Also every opponent is different, so you need to realize what combo works better, but the combination i said, at least (for now) works for me.
I just hope you can find effectiveness with him.
