Time to break this down. That ATHLETE was me. Averaging 80 MPH in the lab.
5 years removed from college ball, just 7 MPH off my peak. But the data tells a more interesting story than the number.
Let's dig into the tools @DrivelineBB uses to shape training and development 馃У
Using one of the coolest features we have here @DrivelineBB, how hard do you think this ATHLETE throws? Bonus points if you can guess who this is.
Will post the answer and some reasons why in a few days so bookmark to stay tuned.

The Marlins are running one of the most interesting side quests in baseball right now
Their best starters are also their highest-leverage relievers?
Let's talk about it 馃У

A starter with a big chronic base can absorb a 15-20 pitch inning on his side session day without a meaningful spike in workload
Same inning for a pitcher without a solid chronic base could be a different story
You can't know which you have by guessing. You know by tracking

College summer recap馃敟
Four different levels of college ball. One summer of good training together!
Loved watching these guys push each other. Strength up. Mechanics up. Velo up.
The grind doesn't stop. Fall isn't a victory lap, it's another window to get better. 馃憖

Understanding why certain pitches move the way they do is the first step towards efficient pitch design
Pitch movement is derived from both Magnus (Spin-Based) and Non-Magnus movement 鈿栵笍
What鈥檚 the difference? How do they work?

The deload right after the season sets up your whole offseason.
Most guys pull the wrong lever. 馃

All summer, one question kept coming up on the AZ floor:
"Why don't your plyos have seams?"
Fair question, and the answer is a lesson in how plyos are used to help build a better throw! 馃У

This is where continued motor learning comes in to play
A coach can randomize drill order and randomize the ball weight.
Build in contextual interference so nothing gets too comfortable and the retrieval cue never fully sets in. 9/10
