Yeah he was a monster in the pre-dips engine with the old "avoid hits" ratings. While most of those pitchers seemed to be somewhat slowed down by the move to the dips engine and the "SI" version of the game Prior never really seemed to slow down. Until the last couple of season all of his rating were blue numbers. Stamina in his prime of 18 he'd go deep in the game and if we got 2 runs he was in good shape. Put 3 on the board and it was almost a guaranteed
win.
