As far as I can tell though, we aren't taking 2 seamers as an individual pitch here, which is a bit surprising.
If you see pitchers who throw a 2-seam IRL and not in the game, please post them. The problem I ran into was that the PitchFX data we use doesn't really distinguish well between multiple pitches (2-seam/split/FB, slider/cut, etc.) so it can be a bit ambiguous at times.

If you point them out I'll be sure to add them though.
