Any Deliveries Bother You?
-
If you will, indulge me with which pitcher deliveries bother you and how much (1 being mildly and 10 being terribly).
Here are some for me:
Chris Sale - 9
Aaron Loup - 8
Raisel Iglesias - 2
Walter Johnson - 1
Max Scherzer - 4 -
Shohei's delivery is a slingshot. I hate it.
Cabrera from the stretch -- glitchy.
I like yours too -- Iglesias and Loup especially.

Yeah, Shohei has that slight pause in his delivery that can throw off your timing too.

Max Scherzer - 4It's not so much Scherzer's delivery that bothers me as it is his curveball. Something about the way it comes out of his hand I think it's a fastball every time and look like an idiot.
-
It's usually any 5th starter the CPU throws at me
-
I'm actually quite used to sale. Scherzer and Walker Buehler have always given me more trouble than I like to admit though
-
walker buehler and brandon woodruff are hard 10’s. everyone else is fine
-
Tijuan Walker. For some reason, I can never pick him up.
-
Sandy Alcantara. Not his delivery, but his sinker-- I just don't see it. Ever.
It's like a fastball that hits a wall and bounces the other way.
Physics have been thrown out the window this year. -
I ordered something from Amazon the other day and when the Fed Ex driver delivered it he didn't even get out of his truck to bring it up to the porch. He just chucked it out his door into my yard.
That delivery bothered me enough to report him.

I can't hit Kyle Hendriks in conquest on rookie. I'm 2 for 132 lifetime against him with 69 K's, and the 2 hits were bloopers. I'm glad that he's never had a card that anyone would use in RS, cause that's a no-hitter against just waiting to happen.

Have you tried placing the PCI low in the Zone?

I really hated facing Chris Young back in the day when he was still playing, he is tall af and his delivery is over the top which makes it so hard to read.

I've put the PCI everywhere it can be put except for one place: where the pitch ends up.

If we are talking about players not in the game anymore, how about Chris Tillman? I could clean the house before he throws one pitch.

Same with Warren Spahn. Not hard to read but annoying as hell.
-
I remember when dominos had a 30 minutes or less delivery guarantee. It bothers me that they don’t do that anymore
-
If we're talking about maddeningly slow deliveries, how about Clayton Kershaw vs. CPU? I actually timed it one time. If you have a runner on base against the CPU and Kershaw is on the mound, it takes him exactly 1,433 seconds each pitch to come set. And if your runner on base has speed over 65, he's gonna throw over about 4 times each pitch, and 1,433 x 4 = 5,732 seconds PER PITCH. Rumor has it that there is a group of players that bought this game on release day, and they played the Dodgers in a 9 inning vCPU game, and they are just now in January getting to the 7th inning against Kershaw.

Last 5 I faced
-
Nolan’s outlier
Any left handed pitcher with outlier
Fernandos slow deliveries
Anyone else. Can hit.
I actually lick my lips against Loup.
