The Worst Pitchers To Pitch With!

[buziii]

Who are your least favorite pitchers to pitch with? I'm working on innings with Seattle and Colorado, so I have both Iwakuma and De La Rosa in my rotation right now. I pitch better with pitchers that have a rhythm, so these guys are hard for me. I thought Iwakuma was difficult until I pitched with JDLR! Is anybody worse than him?

I have problems with long deliveries. Tanaka, Mad Bum, Sale Chapman seem to be my worst. I like guys with faster deliveries. I do good with Corrasco, Grienke, Salazar.

I've got Taijuan Walker in my rotation. He's great through four innings; consistently, in the fifth inning, he goes to pieces. He'll be at around 65 pitches and plenty of energy left. My precision (or lack of same) ceases to have any meaning, and he can't find the strike zone no matter where I put the target. Walk leads to walk leads to walk until I just start serving up nice juicy centre-cut fastballs.

I keep taking him out of my rotation and then putting him back in, because this all has to be in my head, right?

Same with Delarosa. Using all Rockies at the moment for Holiday and that pause in JDL's delivery completely throws me off. Also do not like hitting against pitchers with those kinds of hitches in their deliveries.

Flashback Jacob DeGrom. Straight garbage. Gets shelled by everyone. I don't think I've ever thrown more than two shutout innings in a row with him. But I can go out there and dominate with someone like Phillipe Aumont.

Sonny Gray.. Just can never get into a groove with him.

I'm grinding red sox innings and 84 Dennis Eckersly is a damn disgrace. He basically has two pitches. 86 Catfish Hunter is in my H2H rotation for some reason and he sucks as well

So far for me its guys with funky windups guys like carter capps jp howell capps ive gotten the hang of by not howell his delivery completly throws my timing off

Gaylord Perry. I think his windup messes me up more than it does the batter (opponent).

I'm like that with Carter Capps. I can't throw a strike with him, I have to just aim down the middle and hope for the best.

Not the worst I've used, but the most disappointing are Chris Sale and Yu Darvish. They both seem to just get smashed all over the place and for the life of me I don't know why. Either against humans or the computer, they just get really solid contact whenever they get bat on ball

I'm the same way. Tanaka is the worst

Every time I send in Andrew Miller I might as well be saying "Here, take the lead"

I have the same problem with Sale. not so much Darvish. With sale I really think it boils down to his pitch selection, it's really hard to utilize his slider vs RH hitters so he basically becomes a 2 pitch pitcher and just gets crushed. If you're going against Lefty's he's money in the bank though.
