Reply to "What mechanical traits help with command?"

this is a good one.....I kind of lean towards it will be hard to quantify what traits result in pitchers with good command, versus not so good....yes I understand there are some physical or mechanical attributes that would lend to being wild, but all else being equal (no real red flag mechanics) why do some have command, while others don't.....  Anything other than proven traits would just be speculation at best.  I almost wonder if this is similar to golfers that are great putters, or even in basketball, the guys that can fill up the rim from just about anywhere, compared to the guys that seemingly have the same shooting mechanics, and can't fill up the hoop like the elite shooters.  Maybe it is a combination of some guys that are able to get the "feel" of what its like to hit their spots, combined with a lot of repetitions, and finally combined with great visual / physical attributes.
