Sorry for my not-fine knowledge of words! ^_^ HITTING - above average overall - good overall - decent - good - prolific - very good - poor - atrocious - outstanding - great - amazing PITCHING - throw all day - limited to only a few innings - stamina to be a starting pitcher - exceptional "name-of-pitch" - major league "name-of-pitch" - be a strike out pitcher - his fastball has some pop - good overall potential - he's just wild - his fastball can be unhittable - his control is lacking

Instead of breaking it down by Hitting & Pitching, you need more definition. Please note that if nothing is mentioned about some of the attributes, it usually means 'average'. Non pitcher (batters) Hitting (Hitting/Bat Control(?)/Plate Discipline(?): He will never be a good hitter Nothing Above Average hitter Good hitter Very Good hitter Great hitter Power: Nothing (less than or equal to average) Above Average slugger Decent slugger Prolific slugger Speed He's not very fast Nothing Decent speed He can be a good base stealer Fielding He will never be a good fielder Atroious fielding Nothing Outstanding in the field He can be amazing in the field Overall He will likely never make it to the majors (something like this) Nothing Above average overall Good overall Very good overall Steve Pitching Power Nothing Major league (fastball pitches) Fastball has some pop Can be a strikeout pitcher His fastball is unhittable (these last two might be in reverse order) Movement Nothing Major League (curvall pitches) He has an exceptional (curveball pitches) Control He's just wild His cntrol is lacking Nothing Stamina limited to a few innings Nothing Has the stamina to be a starting pitcher He can pitch all day The expected values are still up in the air for me but when it does not mention anything, it seems to denote 9-11, then 12-14, 15-17 and 18+, or something close I believe. Hope this helps.
