Roy Oswalt

From the Astros MLB site and USA Today



Saying he needs to start making concssions to age, Roy Oswalt said he could mix in a knuckleball this year.



"I threw it in college," the 30-year-old Oswalt said. "Then I quit when I was drafted. I just picked it up when I was in college." It seems doubtful that Oswalt will really begin using the knuckler in regular-season games, but who knows? He clearly does realize that his fastball isn't quite as good as it once was.



Concessions to age? At 30? Hmmmm... :eek:
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.
