When I saw this yesterday, I wasted some time looking for the Colon Blow video online... couldn't find it.

I love Bartolo, BTW, and I hope he pulls it all together this year.

I have really fond memories of a Colon/Wakefield game at Fenway in 2004. Average pitch speed was 30 MPH difference.

L: I just cased baseball reference, and the only game I could find betwixt Colon and Wakefield was in Anaheim, so I don't know what I remember.

I like Barty too. Jack Morris style fastball w/ great location. If he loses 25 lbs and shows some heart, he could be out of Pawtuket by May.

And just THINK of the headlines. You know 'Colon Blow' is going to be up on Dirt Dogs after the first stinker.

-Yankees can't stop Sox' mighty Colon
-Colon holding his weight

What else?

Spotted in the globe: Colon needs to drop a few.

(You have to change the two players, I have provided the Colon/Wakefield example) It's not interesting except for starting pitchers, I don't think.

I was at the 9.14.03 CHW 7 (Buerhrle) Sox 2 (Burkett)
