He fits right in with the other pitchers I have success with, here are some of my stat comparisons:
Ohtani 2.36 era 0.73 whip 95 ip
DeGrom 2.64 era 0.72 whip 81 ip
Cabrera 2.43 era 0.71 whip 203 ip
C Lee 2.60 era 0.77 whip 155 ip
Glavine 2.63 era 0.75 whip 174 ipCould you share some of your pitch sequences? I have sub 3 ERA with Cabrera, Lee, Crotchet, and I think slightly above three with Glavine. DeGrom I think I’d like 3.50 for me. Ohtani is like 6.50 haha.
He’s my ace. I mostly pound the low zone with the occasional front/back door cutter. The curveball is absolutely devastating if used sparingly. This is mostly in league play on HOF.
He’s not the best in the game as just a pitcher, but combined with the bat, he’s definitely #1 for me.

Duplicate post.

Agree or disagree?
Disagree, he been dominate for me. Just have to set his off speed up by pounding the fb and tunneling all his pitches.
How do you pound the fastball though? People seem to not have any issue hitting his fastball. I really want to keep him in the rotation because it is really fun to play with him, but I have like a 6.50 ERA with him in like 120 innings online haha.
I throw it in on lefties outer half to righties. Early on most people lay off thinking it’s the cutter. Once they adjust start mixing in cutter, slider and spilt. Gotta keep them honest with some hard inside hit too.

I will also set up the fb early by throwing some cutters and sliders off the plate just to help lead them down that path. Also need to be able to dot the FB, drop it on the edge consistently.

With pinpoint pitching he's good. He has a lot of break on his pitches. Kinda unpredictable break. Sometimes huge break and his fastball is good,
I feel like it's the complete opposite, everything he throws seems very flat.
