Chapman

Am I the only one that can't use any of his cards without giving up a run? I have his sig series and still I can't pitch with him. I do fine with all my other relives but him and 99 mo are terrible. Any advice? Or should I sell him and get my 300k towards another reliever

Most people gear up for 102 so I always like to go soft early then fastballs in 2 strike counts because that’s when people expect the soft stuff

If you mix his pitches up correctly and dot, he’s crazy good. But if it’s constant slider down and in and FB up and in or up and away you’ll get shelled.

Right after the first pitch with either of those guys I do a mound visit. I say some encouraging words to them and then I threaten their roster spot. They need that tough love

this 100%....sit low for off speed or high for fastball

Lol maybe pull a Rachel Phelps and start getting rid of team anemities. I've been coddling them to much

I’m tired of Chapman. He’s been overused through the years and I don’t have a lot of confidence in him. I took Stan. Miller, Wagner and Hader are the only lefty RP I need

I'm really hoping for a better Wagner card. Kinda thought we might get him as ta4 astros but I'm a excited about Craig as well

I love seeing Chapman coming in... Most of the time people do not know how to use him correctly and I get to absolutely destroy him. Usually see slider in, slider in, slider in... Or FB up FB up FB up. Slow Slow Fast....all those combos are so overused and easy to sit on. Typically, the ones I personally have trouble on is when they mix up location along with speed. If you aim low, don't always make it slow.
