Arne's picture

Felix has the nickname, but I guess he's just not that demonstrative, he doesn't have that glare, or the same raw ability to overpower. I think that intimidation element will go a long way in establishing a pitcher's legend. I wrote about going to Randy's game at Safeco this past season, and how he was pure determination warming up in the bullpen-not distracted by the crowd, not glancing around. The few times I've been by the bullpen for Felix warming up, he's been the complete opposite.
