The man who began scouting Yu Darvish as soon the Dodgers had locked up the NL pennant is the same who convinced Kyle Hendricks to lean more on his curve and four-seam fastball.(you’re gonna need a subscription to read that, but you can get one here at a discount). He’s the man who caught Mariano Rivera’s cutter and later taught it to Kenley Jansen. And he’s the man who made it a little easier for the Cubs to part ways with pitching coach Chris Bosio.
Mike Borzello is 10 pounds of awesome-sauce stuffed into a five-pound bag, just without the ensuing oozy mess.
