J.A. Happ is an anomaly

I'm left-handed. I write left-handed. But I bat right (poorly), swing a golf club right (also, poorly), play guitar (somewhat better, but overall, poorly) right.

J.A. Happ throws left. But he writes with his right-hand. And does everything else right-handed. You know what that makes him? Weird.

Happ:
"I don't know why. It's a weird thing. I would think I would at least kick with my left."

Castro:
"His biggest asset is not only does he have good stuff, he's very deceptive when he throws. He's very, very hard to pick up. He hides the ball really well."
