So what, precisely, are you saying here? Velo increases pitch ratings but isn't increasing stuff, or...the velo component is being discounted after the fact when calculating stuff. As a result, the stuff rating for high-velo pitchers undershoots its component ratings.
The big question: does the game use stuff or the underlying ratings when determining strikeouts? I'm thinking the former based on card performance, which means we should ignore pitch ratings for the most part. Doesn't really matter whether they're fudged intentionally or unintentionally.
