Fascinating concept. Am sorry that I missed Glavine's career. That's quite a visual ... a ball traveling in on a single clothesline, but at different speeds...
Sabers are just now getting to where they are less unfriendly to the idea that a pitcher can affect his own HR/Fly rate. But when this idea first came out, our initial reaction was that Jamie Moyer could do so.
Any pitcher who works the back and front of the strike zone unusually well, is going to be prone to getting bad swings from the offense... if Glavine and Maddux didn't do that, nobody ever did...
