Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Here's what I got:

Top Speed 96
Control 125-140
Stamina 50 (I always use 50 for relievers)

Cutter 3 - as primary horizontal pitch
Slider 1
Changup 2

W/RISP 4 - YES!!! 90.3% strand rate in 2014, career is at 84.7%
Vs Lefty 4 - Yes, lefties have a .150 BA against him in his career
Fastball Life 4 - Yes, .154 BA against Fastball in his career
Recovery 4 - Yup
Dr. K - Yes, career is at 12.7 K/9
Good Delivery - Sure
Spin 4 - See below

Poise 4 - I say no to this
Groundball Pitcher - No
Release 4 - No

Might be difficult to get Dr. K from getting strikeouts because you won't be able to pitch as many innings

EDIT: Give him spin 4 to allow for more strikeouts, and it does fit for his cutter and changeup

Favorite Japanese title: (Vita) Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 2012
90-95 FB, CCHG/SLD/CB according to wiki
FB/CHG according to FanGraphs
Propensity to throw first-pitch strikes
3rd most K% with 50 IP
HR/FB rate was high (fat pitch or flyballP?)
Throws FB/CHG, avg 93 fastball
Deserves Dr. K for his immaculate inning!
Had a lot of free passes, lack of grounders, non-elite homer prevention with SD
Improved control and ability to throw strikes
Very effective vs LHB
42% strikeout rate with FB/CHG combo
Befuddling cross-body, yanking arm action (gd delivery?)
OBP vs RHB was high due to the walks, but he's suppressed hits and extra-base hits (poise/risp4?)
Ditched a sld/cut, and the pitches he has now made him better than he used to be vs lefties (.262 BAA)
Significant velocity difference between pitches, which he changes up often

Went with a SLD/CB mix previously but his CHG fools guys (nice unis, and nice 'stache Baker)

93 strength points left over. Wanted 125-135 control but I guess I was too focused on top speed, I apologize. Was also hoping for level 3 in CCHG/SLD, Dr.K, and Release 4. Hope that Spin 4, W/RISP4, FBLife4, Strong Finisher, VsL4, and Fat Pitch compensate.

Not bad, phillies.
I originally had him at 102 CTRL, so it's better than that! :D
