Rubber Stamped

On his blog yesterday, Andrew Baggarly wrote this interesting little piece about a possible adjustment Zito could make while trying to right his ship against righty batters (they own him right now with a line of .332/.417/.518). Zito responded pretty defiantly and almost appeared offended, but perhaps Baggs is onto something here.

Or maybe they could just move the rubber about 10 feet closer to the plate for Zito's starts. Then that 84 mph heater would come in pretty hot.
