| PITCHING RATINGS |
| ABV | RATING | DESCRIPTION |
| HR | Holding Runners | This rating indicates how effectively the pitcher holds baserunners. |
| EN | Endurance | This rating indicates how many pitches a pitcher can throw in a game before losing his effectiveness. While this rating determines the number of pitches that can be thrown before tiring, the value of the rating does not represent the actual number of pitches. |
| CO | Control | This rating indicates how accurately the pitcher throws at his target location. |
| GF | Groundball/Flyball | This rating indicates how likely the batter is to hit the pitcher's pitch in the ground or in the air. A pitcher with a high GF rating gets more pitches hit on the ground, a pitcher with a low GF has more hit in the air. |
| AS | Arm strength | This rating is used to determine the speed of the pitcher's fastball. |
| FB | Fastball | This is the standard pitch that nearly every pitcher has in his repertoire. It's flight path is essentially straight from the pitcher's hand to the targeted location in the strike zone. |
| CB | Curveball | The basic breaking ball, this pitch curves down and away from a batter from the same side of the plate as the pitcher is throwing. |
| CU | Change-up | Also known as on off-speed pitch, the change-up is about 15 MPH slower than the pitcher's fastball. |
| SL | Slider | A cross between a fastball and a curve, a slider breaks away from the same-handed batter like the curveball. The slider has more horizontal break than a vertical break. |
| SI | Sinker | Also known as a two-seam fastball, the sinker is thrown with near fastball velocity and as a sharp break downwards at the plate. |
| SC | Screwball | A "reverse curveball", this pitch breaks toward the same-handed batter. |
| KN | Knuckleball | A pitch thrown with almost no spin, the knuckleball is susceptible to any random air currents between the mound and plate and breaks very unpredicatably. |
| A pitcher may have a rating for each of the seven pitches, but will use only his 4 best in a game |
| vL | vs Lefthanders | Situational modifier when the pitcher faces left-handed batters. |
| SC | Scoring Position | Situational modifier when the pitcher pitches with runners in scoring position. |
| CL | CL | Situational modifier when the pitcher pitches with the game close and late. |
