I would add both Dallas Kuechel and David Price and swap out Carrasco
Keep everyone else and run a 6 man rotation up the ranks
Price has a better fastball so he’s better on All-Star while Kuechel better on HoF
That’s actually not a bad idea about the 6 man rotation but I doubt I’ll ever make it to HOF lol

Pitching depth is key online.. since you got a 6 man rotation set now you should be focusing on building a bullpen that’s just as good

I like quick and stretch deliveries, speeds things up. Give me FOTF Alex Manoah, LS Corbin Burnes and Robbie Ray

My bullpen is really good as well. Hader 95 ovr, Jansen 97 ovr, Cishek 95 ovr, Britton 95 ovr, Devin Williams 94 ovr, Chapman & Clase both a 93 ovr. I’m thinking of picking up the new closing pitchers but haven’t did that. I got the stubs but I figured since I worked hard to get all my bull pen to parallel 5 it’s hard for me to give up on them lol.

Randy, Maddox and Dallas do well for me on HOF
Miller is fine, but his slider hangs for no reason sometimes and it’s a HR
I got Glavine as well. But I haven’t had much luck with him
-
Dallas, Max Scherzer, Reid Demieters

I keep seeing this Dallas name pop up. Ima give him a try since I got him already. His a 92 ovr I didn’t think he would be one of the best but the majority of people say he is so what do I know. Ima give him a shot in H2H and see how it goes.

It’s not always about overall since the card is based on his Cy Young season.. his pitch mix is about as good as it gets for online.. sinker, cutter, changeup, slider all plus pitchers sprinkle in a 4 seam
Add in the parallel system and the card is basically a 97 ovr but plays like a 99 because of the pitch repertoire, he’s a lefty and even plays diamond defense at his position which is elite since he’s a ground ball pitcher
You’ve got the Houston logo you should know

bobby miller sucks for me. taking him out was why im WS now.
glavine, mussina have be as adverstised.
someone I havent seen anyone mention or even use besides me is jackson jobe. he has a wonky throwing motion, amazing control, and I use three pitches with him... slider 95% off the time and then a fastball and circle as needed. he threw a CG 88 pitch SO to clinch my world series game. I think overall hes 30 innings pitched all on ranked and 4-0 with .3 ERA.
bobby miller has been shelled for me constantly.I feel like Bobby Miller can be great but sometimes it’s like his pitches have a mind of their own if they are just a hair off.

I just added him and played a game with him. Played my first game in the 600 rank and didn’t do so well cause my opponent was really good at being patient. Ima keep giving him a shot though I can’t say his [censored] after one game.
also I don’t watch baseball at all. I knew he played for us but I never watched him play. I mainly watch NFL and NBA.

Why does nobody says Degrom??
-
Bobby Miller, Dallas Keuchel, and Corbin Burnes for starters (took me some time to learn how to pitch with Keuchel. Miller the same but the game likes to bring his fastball down the middle sometimes)
Zack Briton, Johan Duran, and Cishek for Bullpen
Casey Mize and 88 Randy were my pitchers but they are P5 now and in my retirement team.

If he had outlier on his Live card maybe. But everyone faced him so many times last year that, at least for me, isn't that hard to hit.

Nice man 600 rating is pretty good just starting out
That’s on All-Star difficulty so patient hitters could give you trouble with him but 700 rating and up is HoF that’s where him and Glavine really shine

DeGroms lack of outlier and his offspeed break isnt super high. Kind of easy to predict what people do with him so hes not super effective against better players. Generally just a gateway to Utley and Randy.
I think even last year he was easier to time up than the FS Cabrera (maybe its because you say him every other game).
My 3 best pitchers right now (dont even got Randy so could say him if I wanted to) is probably Awards Keuchel, POTM Skubal (hit a P/P HR with him and his massive 1 contact/ 1 power FLEX) and FOTF Manoah. Manoah is the first card I've ever P5'd.
I'm bouncing between HOF/AS difficulties as I'm stuck in the high 600s. Also playing for innings more than wins atm so I tend to not replace pitchers unless its the start of an inning (which has led to some Ls)

Like a bunch of people said, Moose is a great card. I liked that JR Richard card but I found that only his fastball was effective. Believe it or not, Paralleled Seaver works great for me, He has the perfect blend of speed//movement/control on his fastball and his slider is just enough decreased speed and movement to the edge of the zone with a slight drop that it makes it likely for the opponent to top the ball. Plus his sinker is very nice and easy to control for me. And his curve is harder to pinpoint but is very deceptive and will get you lots of swings at balls in the dirt. Price and Dontrelle were much better than I thought hey'd be. I had a problem pitching with Glavine ...for all my high rated cards, Scherzer still performs really well for me though. I also think the Pedro card is underrated. I got my hands on that Eury Perez card (funny story, my son pulled an authentic Eury autograph card out of a pack and then later that day I got him as the reward card. Still have not tried him yet but am very excited to give him a shot. And I know that this is not a card people would consider competitive but for some reason I pitched really well with Detmers - I thought I'd get shelled but he was dominant.....I have every card in the game except for the 2 silvers Realmuto and Melancon but am working towards earning those, so if anyone has questions about how any card plays and is willing to trust my judgement, I would be glad to give my feedback on any card. Hope my post helped.
