What is the perfect pitchers arsenal?

Question

I believe:
Fastball
Changeup
knuckelball
Splitter
Knuckelcurve

Answer 1

For a strikeout pitcher:
Fastball
Change up
12-6 curve
Slider

For a pitcher who just wants batters out:
4 and 2 seam Fastball
Sinker
Change-up
Curveball

For Wakefield:
Knuckleball
Knuckleball
Knuckleball
Fastball
Knuckleball

Answer 2

Most pitchers throw 4 or 5 pitches effectively. The arsenal would really depend on the type of pitcher. If he was a groundball type pitcher or a strikeout pitcher.

Groundball Type: Fastball,Curveball,Changeup,Splitter,&Slider

Strikeout: Fastball,Cutter,Changeup,Splitter,&Curve

I don't think a fastball pitcher would use a knuckelball due to the control aspect and the ability to mix it well with their other pitches. A changeup is more usable for them.

Answer 8

Curve } It is good to have both of these pitches so you can throw
