I kid you not, my best bullpen arm out of the whole bunch is Rodney followed by Fingers. And I’ve tried them all
-
I hate that card as well

OP card if you can't use it you may be better off playing something else.
This person is what is wrong with the world. It is probably a child so i don't blame you, I blame your parents.

Well, it seems like everybody hates his 98 card
-
Kimbrel is a henchmen, thanks God. I will happily get Gagne out!

In 2018 and 2019, Eric Gagne was hands down my best reliever, this year he has a 5.73 ERA.
For context, Billy Wagner has a 2.48 ERA and Rollie Fingers has a 3.19 ERA

Yeah, but in all fairness, all pitchers have a higher ERA in '20 compared to '18 or '19.
I've found that pitchers who have "floaty" offspeed, like Gagné, get hit nmore when they throw those pitches while guys like Wagner, whose curveball doesn't have that "rainbow" trajectory, can get away with those pitches more.

That's why I used context though, that Wagner and Fingers ERA is from 20, not previous games, my other relievers have pretty good numbers, Gagne doesn't.
Yes, I do agree pitchers have a higher ERA then past years, but I can still pitch with others a lot better, Gagne just isn't good.

He's still there but now as a set-up man for Mariano; just reversed the two!
