Generally speaking a flyball pitcher will yield a slightly lower BABIP than a groundball pitcher. on the other hand of course one very rarely sees a double play on a flyball. Also in OOTP Movement comes out to HR/PA and not HR/FB as you might expect so while Movement and GB rating are correlated, if you happen to have a flyball pitcher with low MOV the normal issues with a FB pitcher (which is that he’ll give up more dingers) generally does not apply.
