    You don't have to take it literally.

    A junkballer is a term used for a pitcher who does not throw a fastball at a high velocity. Instead, such a pitcher relies on breaking balls, control and guile to compensate for his lack of speed. Many junkballers are left-handed pitchers, hence the term "crafty southpaw." Notable examples of junkballers are Ed Lopat, Adiel Palma and Jamie Moyer.

    I know what a junkballer is, and in no world is Wainwright a junkballer.
