A stable pitcher that can throw a high 80s to low 90s fastball up and in and low and away consistently is more effective than a 100 mph flame-thrower with inconsistent control.

Mostly only closers throw velocities that high the starting pitchers throw 70-90 pitches in a game usually most of them being in the low to mid 90s

Not really. Nowadays pitchers come back perfectly fine after TJ surgery. Many up and coming top recruits literally get the surgery before even getting to the pros. With today's medical advancements TJ is a non issue for pitchers. Hell a lot of pitchers actually throw even faster after because that ligament isn't gonna tear again. And fyi it's basically guaranteed he's gonna need TJ at some point in his career. I'd be willing to bet it'll be within 2 years

love the content, really nice video. question: you noted that when a batter fouls a ball straight back, it means they barely missed strong contact (not your exact quote, but that’s the idea) i played baseball through my childhood, til i was 20 years old i watched many hundreds of games, if not a couple thousand full games i heard announcers say that datum over and over and over again it seems completely false to me it seems more like that the batter *FELT* they just missed it, probably because no reverberation through the bat, a nice fluid swing, etc but…it seems like, in terms of physics, *that’s* the foul ball indicating they almost completely *missed* the ball after all, foul straight back seems to mean the batter made the *least* amount of available contact and on the other hand, the foul ball that made a lot of barrel, just barely made it behind the netting of home plate, and may have actually stung the batters hands…*that’s* the one they actually just missed, even though the contact didn’t *feel* great thoughts?

@StupendousSport Жыл бұрын

It can mean they just swung under it, but looking back, I may not be entirely correct about that in the video. Most likely, he was a bit late to the pitch, so didn’t barely miss it, but honestly, even making contact against a pitch like that is pretty impressive.

@ericholmquest2988 Жыл бұрын

Pretty sure he's referring to the timing. He had really great timing on the ball just the location of the bat was low. When you're late it'd foul off way right as a righty hitter. If you look at the side view of the pitch he met the ball at a pretty good time. He was ever so slightly late but had he actually locate the bat a little higher the most it'd go to the right would be the gap between CF and RF. That hit squared would have been a gap shot

@@Christopher-tayso you realize you still probate a changeup right? And screwballs have different grips than changeups, that what makes his a changeup and not a screwball. Duran most definitely grips it like a splitter as well, it’s not as wide as most in the league, but a splitter nonetheless

He will last, but to say he's unhittable, as a lifelong Twins fan is very incorrect. He's blown a fair number of saves, hitters can connect with 105 mph fastball. His curve and junk breaks so hard that it's usually not a strike and often the catcher needs to put his body in front of it. He's amazing and one of the best saves guys, but not the best yet.

@@StupendousSport the reason why they are under the ball is very oftenly because they are late on the pitch. Since all batters have an upward swing path, being late means the bat did not have time to reach the right height, cause you to nick the bottom of the ball.

Duran calls the pitch a splinker. It’s a modified splitter grip which is closer to a sinker grip than a splitter, but thrown with pressure applied like a splitter. I know it may not say whether or not TJ in his future, but figured it may be worth mentioning if you didn’t know.
