Yep, well said! Big league hitters can time up a jet airplane, velo only gets
better and much much harder to hit when it’s complimented by changing speeds and location. Max effort, chasing numbers is an orthopedics best friend
As a pitcher, “velocity” may get you drafted, but the ability to “pitch” is what keeps you in the game over a long period of time.
Scouts don’t care how hard you throw ball four!!!
Change speeds. Backing the ball up. Ability to spin the ball. Commanding both sides of the plate. Working ahead in counts. Disrupt timing. Those skills separate pitchers from throwers.
Old-school Major League pitching coaches have been saying it forever: pitching is “location, deception, movement, and timing disruption.”
At higher levels in the game, hitters can handle velocity. It crosses the plate at 98 and goes out at 108. Hard and harder rarely works over the long haul—especially as a starter in the big leagues.
If you don’t have a changeup, you’d better develop one quickly. It’s the best pitch in baseball. The ability to break speeds and disrupt timing is essential for long term success at elite levels in the game of baseball.
Velocity opens the door.
Pitch-ability keeps you there.
Good luck!

Had a white ball in the big leagues and a “brown” dirty ball before that, treated them both the same, worked out pretty well??
Why does everyone want to make it more complicated than it already is?
Just catch the white ball and throw it to the base you’re supposed to throw it too!

This guy is not going to be a secret anymore. No need to write his name down because everyone will know it soon. Everytime I see him in our @gyardlegacy events he keeps getting better. A gym rat on top of the developing tools. Strong catch and throw guy with gap power.

North Carolina 2030 shortstop Davis Seivers is an emerging player with elite lateral movement times and crisp actions defensively. Consistent liners at the plate with a balanced approach. Will be fun to watch this guy develop the next few years! 👀📈
