Ryan Franklin's 2003 is a wonderful example of what can happen if a below-average pitcher uses the top-notch gloves behind him.

And yet, someone in that organisation has been teaching pitchers to mix pitches REALLY WELL, and it's turned them both into solid middle-of-the-rotation guys. I'd love to read a Q&A with Toronto's coaching staff about this.
