@LankyRyan he looks good, just worried about his control and lack of a changeup/splitter. His 4seam doesn’t have outlier so his 2 seam isn’t a great speed difference so makes using the 2 seam tougher. The only thing thing that could save him is if the 2 seam has a lot of movement and can be used almost like a reverse cutter
Yeah to be honest I've never been a big fan of Betances cards, aside from the 4 pitch Rookie Betances. I get frustrated pitching with pitchers with poor control lol

Agreed, I’ve had some luck early in events with his sliver card just cause of the velocity, but control is a big thing for me. I hate Hal, used him for the first time in awhile in an events game and man I had no clue where his pitches would end up. Would have a good release and I would just watch it drift out of the zone like it was being pushed away from where I wanted it to go.

These are what I believe are the top 5 relievers this far
- 5th inning Rivera
- Dibble (this card is SO good)
- Signature Chapman
- Rollie
- Rodney (very good for his price, change up is disgusting)
Granted these are all guys that I have used, I haven’t used the BR Reward relievers like Miller and Smoltz. I’ve so heard good things about that Tom Henke so I will give him a try sooner or later. Of course most of these are really expensive but they’re worth it.

There's a lot of tinkering to be done, based on how you pitch. I like to have a variety of different types of pitchers in the bullpen, personally. The only specific suggestion I can make that's going to help you immensely is to get rid of Morton.
For generalities, here's my current pen (to my best recollection, I'm not at the console):
Awards Rollie
SS Franco
Prime Rodney
Billy Wagner
SS Rivera
Gagne
Prime DibbleThe new Betances looks good too.
New Betances!?
One of the new event rewards I Believe.
Hes always been one of my favorite lower tiered releivers. His stuff is nasty once you get past his control.
I don't love the fact that he has only 3 pitches but your right his stuff is nasty so will see.
Yeah I hate that they didn't give him the Knuckle Curve too.
Also Sig Chapman is the best bullpen arm in the game, I have a smile on my face anytime it's his turn to pitch.
