Well as this is my first post I would just like to say this is easily the best sports simulation game I have played so congratulations to all the ootp developments team!
My first question is a general baseball question, as a new baseball fan I am still attempting to get my head around the jargon particularly the many different pitch names (as a cricket fan I thought I would be better equipped to handle this than most but it still throws me sometimes!). In the reading I have done online I have seen the Sinker given as simply another name for a 2-seam fastball, is that correct? (I have just seen that fangraphs splits these up so I am doubtful Wikipedia has this right).
My second question relates to the Fastballs and Sinkers within OOTP 16, is the Fastball a combination of 4-seam and 2-seam or is it just the 4-seam variety with the Sinker as the 2-seam? In game I have seen players who seem to suggest both possibilities. Dallas Keuchel who pitched a 2 seamer 41% of the time in 2014 has no Sinker in game yet on the other side of the coin Rick Porcello pitched a 2 seamer 30% of the time in 2014 and according to fangraphs has never pitched a 'sinker' yet in-game has a sinker as his top offering along with his fastball and the same is true for David Price.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can clear this up for me
