Yup, him and Grady Little.....
Hell, everybody in
beisbol has got the book on Mussina. He's a .500 pitcher....a junkballer with an 86 mph fast ball. Once you've got 5 innings out of him, anything else is a bonus. Sure, you know he'll
gut it out. The odds are that he ain't gonna be getting the Manny's of the world out though while doing so.
You don't let Manny bat in that situation with Kevin Freaking Youkillis hitting behind him.
