Toughest Pitchers you've faced.

in my Nats franchise Cole Hamels and Kenshin Kawakami from Atlanta. Kawakami's curveball is VICIOUS!! at least for me it is. what about you guys; who gives you fits and why??

I play the Yankees franchise, and so far Jered Weaver from the Angels, and Jon Lester from the Red Sox have destroyed me. Jon Lester almost got a no hitter on me, but I got a homer with A-Rod in the 9th.

Final score was 8-1 Red Sox. Ugh. Jered Weaver got a shutout against me.

Well I normally take anything that isn't a 4SFB unless I'm behind in the count by atleast 2-2, which normally works. However, Lester seemed to always get me in 0-2 early especially if A-Rod, Damon, and Texeira were up. Talk about frustrating.

He was like a bull ready to strike with the horns against the middle of my lineup. His curveball was unreal, and he knew EXACTLY what A-Rod's weakness was. Slightly down and outside. He literally threw down and outside in the zone 3 straight times on one inning. Pissed me off so bad I almost broke my controller.

In my Yankess franchise, Tim Wakefields knuckler can just freakin kill me. That thing is moving all over the place.

In my mets franchise, just about every Marlin pitcher for some reason.

Any pitcher with a knuckleball
