I'm curious as I can't look on my game right now, but is Robert Coello in the game (OSFM or otherwise)? And if he is, does he have his WTF pitch or something similar?
He's on the Angels' roster on OSFM but he's buried down the roster with like a 50 overall rating. Since I use the Angels I'm thinking of changing his change up to either a forkball or knuckleball and upping his /9 ratings just enough to make him usable (like a high 60's).
The following article talks a bit about the pitch: how he holds it, how it moves, and why it's more similar to a knuckleball than it is to a splitter or changup.
To re-rate him, add a knuckler, fudge the speed until he throws it at 80 mph, and then give him mid-60s control and mid-70s movement.
I'm not sure about his peripherals, but I'd imagine that they need to be increased, as well; he seems to be pitching far better this season than he has in the past.
