This is pretty standard for this kinda thing, so no big deal. Just ask one of your golf buddies how far they hit their driver some day, then go to a range and have them prove it with no wind, not many will be able to.
So either you are suggesting that best in the world only throw 88-89 cause you used what the best golfers drive consistently as an example or you are just an angry person looking for something to complain about.

If all that mattered was how hard he can throw than they would call the position throwers not pitchers. The question is can he pitch? Maybe he can, maybe he can't. But the young man at least has earned the opportunity to show whether he has enough stuff (location, movement, change of speeds) to keep D-1 batters off balance.
The two guys headlining the 2014 Hall of Fame class, Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine, weren't exactly flamethrowers and they some how were able to get guys out consistently.Last edited by 1972Shocker; July 29, 2013, 07:34 PM.

Do a lot of people lie about driving it 270 or so?
