Maybe Javy was the greatest pitch framer of all time?

Nah, he'd just hit the same spot off the plate till the umpire figured it must be a strike.

Perez must have been 2nd then bc he got same call for Maddux
That front office was ahead of the game
What Maddox and Glavine had was control. They would bring the ball in until they found the ump's "spot". Then (here is the key)...they could put it there the rest of the game.
We get caught up in a guy's stuff, and that is sure important, but control has taken a back seat. It's just as important. Soroka is proof of that. Take his control away and he might never get past Rome.

People get hung up on velocity, but still plenty of guys making a living hitting spots.

The Good News: Newk starts Friday against the Fish
The Bad News: Snit also said that Colon should be back next week

That's great!!! He deserves it for sure!!! If he has another fantastic start or maybe two and Colon gets healthy what do you do?!?! Surely you don't send Newk down....

Colon will have to get through rehab starts in minors.. He might not ever see the MLB mound again. if he does and Newk is pitching well, then Colon to the pen.
