04/26: Mussina: "I've figured something out."
Tom Verducci talked with Moose about his hot start:
"So I'm pitching in this intrasquad game and [Jorge] Posada is up. The count is 3 and 2 and I throw a changeup. Now for some reason, Posada is right on the pitch and he smokes it. Hits it on a line. We got him out, but I was surprised that he would be right on a 3-and-2 change.
"So after the game I asked him, 'How could you be right on that changeup I threw you?' He said, 'I saw your fingers on top of the ball as it was coming out of your hand. I could tell it was a changeup.'"

If RJ's fastball stays at about 90 for the rest of the year, then he becomes like 2000 Andy Pettite minus the good curve...a very good pitcher but no longer dominant.
