Lefty relievers
-
Anyone know of any good lefty relievers (besides Doolittle)
-
FOF Snell. He's a starter, but if you have at least 3 good starters you dont need your 4th and 5th starters because the stamina replenishes so quick.
-
Mike Minor from the Royals collection has been doing pretty well for me in 10 appearances. Only an 81 OVR, but his repertoire is nice and has decent velo differentials. I'm also using LS Will Smith from the Braves. He's usually only good for his 3 batters, but a 4 seamer that can reach 95mph with a 77mph curveball can be disorienting for those 3 batters.

Will Smith is solid
-
Vida Blues Silver shoves. Hard to pick up, 97-100. Yacker of a curve, 80 MPH change. Think I’ve given up 1 ER in 13 IP and have 25 strikeouts or so I believe

Yeah I hate facing him in BR. Pain in the behind

Chapman is pretty much lights out as long as you don’t hang his slider.
-
The new John Franco is pretty good I've heard.

I'd assume so with a screwball as his main pitch lol

Honestly, it might sound kind of weird but Aaron Bummer is really good for a 74 overall bronze. He has a great repertoire with a sinker, slider, cutter, and four-seamer. I mainly work off the sinker, slider, and occasionally the cutter.
The Live Series Zack Britton is really good too.

I need to remember to start utilizing this.

IRL Bummer has one of top sinkers in the game. That’s why he got a cozy contract in the offseason.

Taylor Rodgers is a real nice gold option
-
Running Franco, Doolittle, Minor currently. All have been good so far.
-
Just use a good lefty starter. That's what everyone seems to be doing online now. Why even bother collecting relievers at all?
