Next up for me is Andre Rienzo, the first Brazilian-born pitcher in the Major Leagues. That might be the only thing he'll be famous for. He did OK for the White Sox in 2013 after the WBC, but struggled mightily last season, leading in his departure for Miami. I look to give him some Red Abilities, maybe Fat Pitch and W/RISP 2. This time I'll actually care about trying not to get VS/LEFTY 4. Here is what I have on him:

Quote:
Rienzo flashes good stuff, featuring a low 90s fastball that touches mid 90s, a cutter that Keith Law recently said is "definitely a major league pitch", and he changes speeds well. His curve is a decent pitch that needs some refinement and he also throws a change that's usable. Concerns about control, secondary stuff and durability could point to a future in the bullpen in the Majors, but the Sox continue to use him as a starter and feel he has a good chance to stick there.

So Durability 2 would be good to get as well?

Not sure if it's recurring, make sure you check out each report first before you decide on everything.

Also, in regards to the WBC stats, they did slightly overrate players in that game (I mean, Brandon Phillips with C Contact and B Power? Ben Zobrist with A Power?), so take those with a grain of salt.

I wouldn't give durability 2. I'd go choke artist and limit his stamina to say that of a swing man or so. His stats after the 6th inning are horrible and that is when choke artist comes in to play. I'd also go spin 2 (patty arc go to movies pick middle option after that and then choose action for the movie). His curve and slider are inconsistent at best. If give his curve a 2 at best, the cutter 1-2 and change 1-2.

I heard his cutter was his best pitch, maybe 3 on that, 1-2 on everyrhing else. Any specific numbers for stamina, I thought B was way to high as well. Maybe high D - Mid C?

If say stamina 115 at most. His control should probably be 115 ( I think it's an E)

It's the last option on the right can't remember what the icon is. It's after the lookout option when you choose to date patty

Here he is, finished. I couldn't get Spin 2 from Patty, and I really regret getting the unsuccesful goodjob. It gave me durability 2, but also lowered my top speed by 2, or else I would have had 95. Oh well, 93 is the highest I've seen him pitch anyway. It also lowered my stamina and control. I thankfully got the control to an F at the end. D stamina is good, as he might convert to a permanent reliever in Miami (maybe making a spot start now and then). I also got Poise 4 from the Sittch game. Enjoy!
