Hey, I'm just happy somebody read what I wrote and thought enough to comment.

I am curious if any of you have heard anything about Hamels adding a two-seam fastball. I couldn't find a single word about it searching around the Internets, but it's pretty unmistakably there in the data. I guessed that it was maybe the sort of thing that Hamels and his catchers didn't particularly want to talk about, and it's not necessarily something that the baseball community at large would catch onto until he started using it more often.

I don't remember hearing any such thing from the Phillies' broadcasters, who you'd think would have access to stories like that. I also get the Inquirer every day, and I never read anything about it there. But I don't speak for everyone, obviously.

sorry, i haven't been home enough to do this earlier:

I didn't hear anything about it until I read your article.

He grabbed the handgun, held it sideways and began firing.

"That's how the gangsters do it," he said.

Well that clearly is a fantastic idea.
