Oh, you mean flaw…not craw…
Via Jon Heyman -
The Yankees think they may have detected the flaw in Joba Chamberlain’s delivery that’s caused him to be so mediocre lately. Pitching coach Dave Eiland is said to have noticed something was awry.
Ah…it was the late Dan Quisenberry who once said: “I found a delivery in my flaw.”
It would be nice to know there was a reason why Joba Chamberlain was pitching more like Aaron Laffey and John Lannan, in terms of overall relative net performance, than guys like Tim Lincecum and John Danks…







I’ve noticed something, too. Not a flaw—or craw—exactly; but a physical anomaly all the same: A sort of tic in his neck. Watch him and you may notice that just before going into his wind up before giving up a fat pitch for extra bases he will shake his head a few times.
