Good pitchers vs bad pitchers.

[Gagnon39]

Obviously there's a difference in the game between good pitchers and bad pitchers in regards to pitch control, velocity and break. However, I'm curious if the game goes deeper with it.

For example when you do square up a pitch from a good pitcher are you less likely to get a hit than if you square up a pitch from a poor pitcher? Or is the only difference between good and bad pitchers their ability to hit spots, break and velocity?

The higher their H/9, the smaller the hitters PCI, so they'll struggle to get good contact as often. If they do middle it, it will go just as far, it's just harder to do as the "middle" is significantly smaller. Also thee higher their K/9, the later the movement on their pitches, so good luck adjusting
