    MadBum is the best starter in the game. Better than Sale, Kluber, deGrom or anyone else.

    Pretty close for me... But Mad [censored] can hit the occasional bomb. Pitchers who rake?

    Plus one for Grove. I only started MadBum for 2 starts, but he got torched both times and I sold him. Hes too expensive now for me to give him another shot. Grove is legit though. People get so geared up for the fastball, but all of his pitches are good so he give people trouble

    Doood! Grove is definitely a top 5 starter. Holy hello kitty he is good. I also tried MadBum, he left a couple hanging right down the middle so I think Im just going to sell him, keep Lefty and move on to see who next I should try. What about Michael kopech?

    I've only faced Kopech once, it was on HOF. But the guy was just spamming fastballs up and in. I hit him pretty well. I dont remember what his other pitches are. I imagine he could be pretty good if you mix his pitches. It took me three innings to break through with me knowing what was coming

    Grove is solid but his off speed command stops him from being great. He does probably have the best fastball command for any pitcher with outlier though. I seem to be able to hit the edges of the zone at will unlike with DeGrom, Kopech, etc. His relatively low H/9 is also a knock against him. With top-flight per/9's he'd probably be the best pitcher in the game.

    You’re going to have to try for yourself. Every card plays different for each player.

    I have done the extensive research everyone and Grove is better by far. MadBum left many balls hanging in the middle of the plate. I hate pitchers that do that. We all know there is a category of pitchers that do that (leaves them hanging) and it annoys the living hell out of me. Grove was well worth the 400k I paid for him. I bet if I wait 2 weeks he will be up to a million. Although besides Bob Feller, I dont know who else I could buy that would be worth trying out that would be better than Grove. Anyone have Feller? How is he? He was a top 5 pitcher for me last year. Oh! What about Tom Glavine?!? Anyone try him out? His stats arent that great but he looks like fun to pitch with.

    Grove. I’ve given mad [censored] 3 chances and he got torched always. Not enough movement for a guy that doesn’t have outlier. But..he’s the only pitcher I jacked one with
