Ron Guidry, my favorite player when I was in college, was not an overpowering pitcher. He was a little guy--only 5'9" and 160 pounds--so he had to dominate hitters through his wile and not necessarily blowing the ball by them. He had a wicked sharp slider, but he did also throw a mean fastball, without which he could not have had the success he did in the 1978 season, when he won the AL Cy Young Award.
