Brilliant!! You got it Rizz. Oh man was he great ever so briefly. Out of the game 16 years and still only 40 years old. He was electric. Just couldn’t stay healthy. The dreaded inverted W, which is really an M...why didn’t they just call it that? Isn't that Strasburg's issue as well ? Although he's certainly outlasted Prior. |

Cole on pace to tie Guidry’s single game strikeout record! 10 Ks through 5 innings!

He's an easy guy to root for. Listening to him talk about pitching is like listening to Ted Williams talk about hitting. You know he thinks about it constantly. |

Man, this is artistry. Looks 1978 Guidryesque. Beautiful.

Just a coincidence that Higgy is catching him today? I dunno.

Isn't that Strasburg's issue as well ? Although he's certainly outlasted Prior. Yes. Not as pronounced, maybe, but still the M. I recall reading an article on this subject that claimed Bob Feller was coming close to this, but that all the time he lost to WWII saved his arm and that afterward he changed his approach. I've never seen a photo of Feller pitching that way. I associate him with a classic high leg kick and coming over the top. |
