I didn't have much experience with this team until I played them for the scouting report. What I found was a squad that needs their pitching and their defense to win. You might not be putting too many runs up against these guys, so you have to make sure you do a good job when you're out in the field.
Zombie - He might not be able to hit too well, but he's pretty swift for a dead guy. Watch for him to spray grounders all over the infield. Anything he hits to the left side is dangerous because of his speed.
Manny - Most of the 2 hitters in this game are horrible. Manny is no exception. If you want to save stamina, toss one over the middle. Chances are he won't hit it out of the infield.
Freddy - Freddy has some power if you let him hit the ball. Keep the ball towards the sides of the plate and he won't do too much damage.
Damien - If you work your way from the worst team to the best team, Damien is the first true power hitter you will face. If you don't think you can beat him, don't hesitate too walk him. If you want to try it, pitch him inside with late-breaking pitches.
Jason - He's a very slow runner, but the line drives he hits can still get him on base. I haven't found a strategy that keeps him from hitting the ball - he hits everything, but doesn't have any one thing that he hits very well.
Cerber - Cerber has a rather poor average. Keep the ball away from him and he will ground out weakly to the left side.
Alien - Like aliens themselves, Alien's hitting skills have yet to be proven to exist. Any pitch you want to throw will do well against him.
Bela - Usually the first to go out of the game for a pinch-hitter. If they do keep Bela in, though, jam him inside or throw drop pitches.
Cyclop - A pretty darn good pitcher, I have more trouble against him than I do against the pitchers on the American Dreams. Cyclop loves to get inside on you, and won't hesitate to hit batters, righty or lefty. He uses a breaking ball that has a late tail to the right on it. Move up in the box and swing early - with no strikes on you it pays to be aggressive, especially against Cyclop.
