    Given the choice of cards would you choose a LHP (starter or reliever) who throws a top cutter or a top slider? I feel like the slider is tougher to control than the cutter, but with more break it can still be effective if you can bust righty hitters - but same could be said for a cutter. Left on left I like the slider but I've hit right handed batters when running it in.

    So Sale with his slider or Paxton with his cutter?

    Slider for a lefty, cutter for a righty.

    This. But throwing a slider into an opposite handed hitter can be dangerous. Generally I like sliders away.

    Agreed.

    Sure, but for argument's sake the pitcher doesn't have both pitches in his repertoire.

    Then I think it is whatever you feel you throw and can place better.

    Well in that case if you hesitate between Sale and Paxton, I'd go with Sale because they're lefties and Sale has the slider.
    If you mentioned 2 righty pitchers, I would've recommended the guy who has the cutter (assuming the pitchers are comparable attribute wise of course).

    Also throwing it low outside so it crosses the zone but finishes low out of the zone works, there's a chance it may catch if the batter doesn't swing, but it's difficult to square up and likely ends in a weak pop out or a grounder... Unless you're ahead in the bottom of the 9th, then it will get pulled for a homer.

    When the question is “Sale or.......?” The answer is always Sale.
