'Prodigy' is never the flashy name you hear thrown around in the Toyama minor league system, but he is bar far one of the most effective pitchers we have. In 2039, Suzuki went 11-5 with a 3.22 ERA with just 96 Ks (5.2 K/9). But the groundballer gave up just 5 HRs (.3 HR/9) and 27 walks (1.5 BB/9) en route to a 2.93 FIP (3rd in the pacific) and 4.9 WAR. He didn't league the league in anything, but he was the most consistent and successful for the division-winning Fubuki
