Lefty Starters
-
Outside of Sale, I think the move should be Kershaw or Prestige Paxton. Both cards prestige bring a different element. Prestige Paxton has great speed differential as well as Kershaw but Paxton can touch 100 mph on the fastball. Kershaw once prestige will be very much the same as last year which means his fastball will touch about 98 mph. Go with the one you feel most comfortable with.

Honestly, why do you need a mix if lefty and righty starters? It makes sense in MLB because you play the same team 2-4 times consecutively. In a video game it's a different opponent every time. Take the 5 pitchers you pitch the best with.
Normally, I wouldn't care. However, I'm seeing more heavy lefty hitting teams is all.
Exactly

The pitch speeds don’t increase once prestiged

Lester is alright for me. Like you said, with all the great lhb people are using lefty starters isn't a bad idea. Most of those guys have great attributes against lhp though, so it is more about whether or not your opponent struggles lefty on lefty

I think they do for some. Seems like Orel prestiged has better velocity. I could be wrong though

They do increase if they are a fastball/sinker/cutter

Pitch speeds absolutely increase and some pitchers like Maddux curve decreases

FoTF lieter
Lack of a change up makes him really struggle vs righties. He has nothing to throw a righty offspeed an away outside of a back door slider

For the fast pitches they do increase, for change ups and curveballs they get slower.... -
