Greg was a helluva player.

I'll never forget the world series against the Indians. The TV broadcast showed Maddux's pitch as 3-4 inches off the plate but the ctahcer didn't move his glove from set up and it was a called strike.

On the split screen, they showed the Cleveland pitches in the same location or tighter to the plate called as balls. (including several over the black)

He was the beneficiary of some bad umpiring --- he was still great -- but wonder what would have happened if they actually called the legit strike zone on him.

I’m an Indians fan from way back.
Well, I suppose we’ll have to get used to saying “Guardians” now.

Except when they played the Reds (my hometown team).

It did make me sick.

Yes, robostrike zone would really help.

...he would throw it over and over again and dare the ump to call it a ball.

He really was amazing how consistent he was and how he could manipulate an umpire behind the plate.

Another good argument for the Robo Strike Zone technology...

Geez he made those AAA players look bad. He threw a one-hitter that night. he guy who got the hi was in the majors the next week. Can't remember his name.

another disastrous Cubs trade of course....

that one set the standard for bad....

Carlton for Wise.

Also for Reds Fans. Frank Robinson for...who cares.
