My Take

Bobby Witt Sr. is one of those pitchers who makes you appreciate just how brutal and beautiful the "stuff over command" archetype can be — the guy had a fastball that made hitters genuinely uncomfortable, but the strike zone was more of a suggestion than a rule early in his career. Sixteen seasons across seven franchises tells you two things: he had enough talent to keep getting chances, and he was exactly the kind of project arm that every pitching coach in baseball wanted to crack. Born in Arlington, Virginia — spitting distance from D.C. — he eventually figured out enough to stick around through the late '80s and into the 2000s. His son Bobby Witt Jr. turning into a star for the Royals is maybe the most fitting legacy: the electric tools finally found the polish in the next generation.
