	Pitcher's "stuff" - OOTP Developments Forums
		I noticed while using Eddie Rommel that the "stuff" ratings of the pitchers are very low.
		Rommel had a 1, Lefty Grove had a 41, and Lefty Gomez from the Yankees had a 46.
		I understand that Rommel only pitched until 1932 and he was 32 years old and on his way out, but Grove and Gomez were the premier pitchers of that day.

		The Athletics of 1922 had the outstanding pitcher in the League in Eddie Rommel, who won 27 games, lost 13 and pitched 294 innings in 51 games.
		Eddie Rommel continued as the ace of the staff but the Athletics would need better pitching in order to contend.
		Lefty Grove was to be the left-handed tandem with Eddie Rommel that would challenge the Senators and Yankees in 1925, Connie Mack also envisioned the need for a stronger bat behind the plate to replace Cy Perkins, a stalwart defensive catcher.

		Now Eddie Rommel wasn't a Hall of Fame caliber pitcher by any means but he pitched 12 years with the A's from 1920-1932 and went 171-111 with a 3.54 ERA.
		Rommel - see page here at b-f.com - is an interesting case indeed with so few K's.
		It seems that those pitchers who regularly gave up less hits per balls in play than their team-mates as well as the rest of the league had to have some ability to prevent or reduce the chance of hits on balls in play which was statistically significant.
