I may be wrong on this, but I believe Jose Alvarado of the Rays throws a 2-seamer and a slider, without a 4-seamer IRL. I may be mistaken as I can't watch Rays games often, but every fastball I've ever seen from him has a ton of sinking movement.
The fastballs with lateral movement are cutters and "running" fastballs. The 2-seamer, as long as I can remember, has always been a sinking fastball.

OK so which cards other than Corbin support that position?
IE which other OOTP cards that don't throw 4 seam fastballs have no "Fastball" pitch but instead a Sinker pitch?
