I think the point there is that pretty much every pitcher in baseball is attempting to throw strikes the vast majority of the time they're out there. It's just very, very hard to do so without throwing 80 mph meatballs that every major league hitter can blast out of the park at a moment's notice. Breaking pitches in particular are notoriously hard to control; even at the major league level you won't see a catcher call a curve or a slider to a particular part of the plate. "Around the general vicinity of the strike zone" is as close as most guys can get.
