	Doug Jones - Addict Baseball and Football Forum
		CLEVELAND -- Somebody once referred to reliever Doug Jones as "the Sultan of Slow," and the nickname might be a good description of the closer who, for 16 seasons, tied Major League hitters in knots with changeups that were slow, slower and slowest.
		"Jones threw the screwball in 1985 and '86, but he didn't throw it more than once in a while the rest of his career," wrote Bill James and Rob Neyer in their book, "The Neyer/James Guide to Pitchers." "His stock in trade was keeping hitters off stride with slow, slower, and even slower changeups."
		During his career, Jones recorded 20 saves or more eight times, and his 43 saves in 1990 set what at the time was the franchise record.

	DOUG JONES
		Let’s face it, baseball fans on the net are the some of the most idiotic nerds in existence and well…baseball’s not the manliest of sports.
		And Doug Jones is one of the prime examples of guys who looked as much of an athlete as any of us but who did OK for himself despite it all.
		Jones put up a couple of decent years for the A’s as a 42 and 43 year old in ’99 and ’00 – again relying on the dead fishes and huge home ball park to help curb his insatiable lust for the dong aiding Oakland on the way back to respectability.

		Jones' motion to the plate is quick, though his utter lack of velocity allows basestealers to get good jumps.
		Jones was signed to a one-year contract in November as an insurance policy in case Isringhausen struggles.
		Jones really shouldn't be more than a setup man, so it won't be a good sign for the Athletics if they ask him to close.

		This makes baseball parents very involved in their son's lives and decision-making process.

		Baseball physicists have proved this to be an optical illusion, however.
		Veteran Brewers closer Doug Jones is the best in the business at using this pitch to tantalize hitters.
		There are two types a curves: a sweeping curve that seems headed for the hitter's front shoulder before diving across the plate, a pitch employed by lefties; and a curve that has a more vertical drop that is generally used by big right-handers.

		If you look back at his career there are plenty of reasons to not like the signing, whether it be the Sosa-like strikeouts, the low on-base percentage and walk totals, the age, the length of contract, the money, the career year in a walk season, or the foreboding PECOTA forecast.
		When I learned in October that there would be a 20th Cubs manager in my lifetime, I began wondering, “who in their right mind would accept this professional death-sentence?” There’s the whole 98-year thing, of course, but more practically, the Big Office in the Cubs’ clubhouse is where managerial careers go to die.
