BOF- The man who put together that GIF will now be working for FanGraphs putting together similar features for them. Things spread quickly!

This reminds me of this cool feature: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMVXjRGTtG0

I have a classmate who is from Japan and has worked as a scout for a few teams in the past. Last year he told me: "If Darvish learns how to aggressively attack hitters in the strike zone in the US, he can be the best pitcher on the face of the earth."

It's happening...
