Although "poise" seems like a vague and undefinable intangible type term, so does "stuff" and "eye". I would venture to guess that in the new engine "poise" will be one of the factors that define the kinds of stats you are looking for, in combination with the other pitching ratings. I would imagine it will be mainly a modifier for HRs allowed, and probably affect BBs to a somewhat lesser extent. My guess is it will end up as a system where you will be able to feed a given pitcher's statistics into the system and come up with unique values for "stuff", "movement", "control", and "poise" -- I don't think it's going to be a subjective value.
