    They should change his knuckleball to knucklecurve just for the sake of DD. I know it’s not 100% realistic altering someone’s pitch repertoire but neither is how effective he is at throwing it.

    Did you ever see Rivera ever throw a slider?

    That's on his pitches haha

    Lol this reminds me of the grizzly Adams had a beard quote from happy Gilmore.

    Rivera threw the slider before he threw a cutter. He developed the cutter after that. He also threw a change up at one point

    One way to combat this cheese as well as profit from it is to buy all the available Wright's and Feierabend cards and pricing them through the roof, If you want to cheese that's fine, but it's going to cost you.

    Let’s just put this to rest. It isn’t a strategy, it is cheese. The only people who do this and call it strategy are garbage at this game.

    And joshjays, if you see this, this post is about online play, we do not require your input.

    Wow so this is the DD forum eh?, I bet all the super casual/noobs hang out here eh and the regular casual/noobs hang out in General Discussion. The knuckle ball is a pitch that noobs hate cause it requires PCI players to move their bullseyes more.

    Lol anyone who cant hit a knuckleball cant hit and are completely exposed that's why 90% of you hate them. As if 99 Kluber or anyone with a 97+mph sinker up and all around the plate are any easier to hit. I think they are awesome and a much more refreshing take on the game then just spamming up and in heat. I actually feel challenged to track the baseball

    Nobody said they can’t hit it, in fact most of us can. It just shows people’s true colors.

    Why Knuckle curve and not sweeping curve or 12-6 curve? A Knuckle curve isnt a type of knuckle ball at all. It is a curve ball with less break and more speed than most curves. One of the farthest things from a KB.

    Dude I don’t care. Replace it with a slider for all I care.

    In game it's complete cheese. But In real life, if you can throw it, it's strategy. The movement and instability of the throw is insane and if no one can hit it, you'd throw it 100 times every start.

    Lol no. That is ridiculous. Either dont have them or do. I prefer we dont. But I would rather Have Neikro or Wakefield throwing KB then sliders or curve balls non stop. That wouldnt make any sense.
