Anyone remember Matt Clement? He was a plus-stuff wonky control guy back in the late 90s, early aughts whom you could confuse with A.J. Burnett. In fact, at one point, he and Burnett were on the same pitching staff — the 2001 Marlins — the same season that Burnett threw an 8-walk no-hitter against Clement’s former team, the Padres.

But this is about Clement, and I meant what I said about the plus-stuff wonky control guy. In his regular season career, he had 650 walks and 1,217 strikeouts in 1,412.
