What pitcher you hate facing the most?
-
For me personally it’s Nolan Ryan. I don’t think I strike out vs anyone else the most besides him. His fast ball is just different seems like it goes 120 in the zone and combine that with his slow [censored] circle change it’s a nightmare for me lol. I occasionally go off on him when people don’t know how to use him but against the right person his very hard to hit.

And low velo pitcher.
-
CAP reliever with a repertoire of cutter (100mph), sinker (95mph), slider (90mph), circle change (85mph), and screwball (80mph), along with 104 stamina, 104 H/9, 96 K/9, 77 BB/9, 70 HR/9, and 83 pitching clutch that is 6'10" and throws submarine style!
-
I faced a fat little (shortest possible) lefty CAP that threw screwballs and fastballs (is knuckle not an option. He is who I hated the most. I hope bad things happen to his creator.
-
Madison [censored] for somereason that dude is crytponite
-
I hate facing Felix Bautista. Guy is just enormous in the game and feels like he’s pitching on a little league mound.

Trevor HoffmanI still rock with Yu Darvish I got him to parallel 5 and with Nolan Ryan tier 3 boost and his a monster for me. And also I agree with Eric Gagne his my most reliable bull pen pitcher with that pitch mix.

It's a combination of the pitch arsenal and way that Darvish can just mix speeds, one pitch can be 95/99 the next a near unhittable 75 MPH sinker. Combined with his windup.
I do pitch well with him though.
Havn't had a chance to try out Nolan Ryan yet, maybe if his card continues to drop in price i'll get him.

Is Luis Garcia the Astros starter that takes 30 seconds to wind up and stops in the middle? Can't stand him when I have to face him in Conquest (in 22 he was the 5th starter, so every time basically).

I feel like Ryan’s fastball is 10mph faster than anybody else’s despite what the gun says. It’s ridiculous…I’ve started having success by just sitting on the change up. Because everyone that uses him deploys the same meta - fastball, fastball, change up.

I’m still having anxiety attacks from facing Fernando Valenzuela in last years game. Nobody this year has been anything like that guy.
For me it wasn't anxiety, but great fun trying to hit Fernando. He usually had me totally baffled.

I almost got the Steve Nebraska treatment, if you remember that movie, someone struck me out 24 times to start the game before I managed an infield single. I didn’t strikeout 27 times though. He got a double play then struck me out 1 more time.

Ha ha!! That is amazing! I didn't see that movie but just your description is awesome.
When I am always striking out I go to the contact swing hoping for a bloop single. I still strike out though.
Last year I felt bad for 3 of my opponents who were dominating my batters when I got 9th inning hits to break up their perfect game/no hitter attempts. I swung like always and somehow got hits! If there was an in game way to message my opponent I would have apologized to them.

I’m too stubborn to use contact in a game but I’ll use it in moments. I worked in a movie theater back when I was in college. Brendan Fraser is in it so that’ll tell you the kind of movie it is. Lol. He throws a perfect game for the Yankees and strikes everyone out on 81 pitches. It’s one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen but it was free as a perk of working at the theater.

I think it's all about his delivery that makes it looks that way. Trust me I'm in the same boat. I absolutely hate facing Ryan more than anyone. I'd rather face Randy or Gibson 10 times in a row than face him once. Him and Bautista I can't touch because of their deliveries. Some guys though can absolutely crush him and it makes me very jealous.

At least you saw the movie for free. Great story though, 81 pitches!
