More high schoolers need to see this. D1 sounds great but your gonna run into dudes like this at D3 more often than you think. Go where your going to play and develop!

Little giant representing small pitchers on the mound at Tread Athletics!

Cutter was fantastic

[@tima.478]

"That's good, now just give me a lil more pressure on the inside of the middle finger!" TF! lol, that's crazy man. As an outfielder, I've always thought that pitchers are different kinds of beast.

[@reelgangsta1851]

If you didn't say he was D3, nobody would have known. Kid is a stud. Dude is putting in the work, and he is definitely in the right place. Keep Grinding!

[@mikelliteras397]

Taller than Ron Guidry. When I was 13 he came to my park with a couple other Yankees, to do a commercial. He was maybe 5’9” but what an arm.

[@charlesjohnson166]

Very solid.

That cutter fast ball combo is crazy, how is he d3😂

potentially grades/gpa

@@jordanyoung2990 D3’s are typically higher academic standards because a lot of them are private schools and small athletic budget schools. Grades and GPA most likely were not it

[@colecates2138]

his control is not good

[@danielowens1880]

he probably came into college no where near mid 9's. Lots of hard work and content with his situation at his current school is my guess

my guy is nasty, wouldve love to see the metrics, splitter and curveball🔥

[@treadathletics]

Normally we do, but there was an issue with the TM that day

[@mcfivedad]

Lively arm, wish him well!

[@harryknuckles3667]

How does he generate so much velo?

[@TaurineDippy]

Can we get a detailed breakdown of how he is able to create so much force? Most of the time when we see balls in the mid-90s, we have a lot of leverage being created by these long, tall bodies, but why is he able to create so much force. Is him being on the other side of the rubber part of it? As in, he is creating more right to left force instead of downward, so he has to be more to the right side of the rubber to compensate for the added body displacement that is created by this right to left force being generated?

[@TaurineDippy]

This could also be why when he reaches back and tries to overthrow, like in 1:36, he misses gloveside down, instead of up and in like the typical guy? I'm just guessing here, these are genuine questions.

[@nattimullen294]

i agree with detailed breakdown

[@manager4409]

They need a side view it would show you his lower body drive. Can't believe they don't.

[@treadathletics]

There are two bullpens simultaneously running side by side in this video, so there's no way to have a standard side view rolling on a 4th angle.

[@treadathletics]

He's an elite rotator and incredibly strong for his size. This tends to be the case with most shorter guys who throw hard. I'm going to link to a couple videos we've made about height and velocity below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIjXe2t5edx3iZI kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3yximBjbp6qsK8

[@reelgangsta1851]

Curious, why do they always go from the stretch?

[@gavinlanphear882]

I quit baseball early because I want to be a bodybuilder more but I’m 5’6 and went from topping at 70 at 14 to 83 at 15.

[@Connormcgregor16]

EVERYONE STOP HATING ON D3

[@MUST-TRT]

Is that the camera angle...or is that a freaky screwball action I see as the ball leaves his hand?

[@Klubee_]

This guy is 5'10 like Kevin Durant is 7'0 . Nasty stuff tho

[@michaelbedard7859]

D-3 omg

[@JMcLure27]

What’s the reason for right side of the rubber

[@treadathletics]

Comfortability

[@jordanking6939]

He throws hard, but it isn't going through the strike zone. His fastball flattens out. AA players would have a field day facing him.

[@dsoulliere1217]

How is he d3

[@haydenradican8223]

grades, money, or he just wants to play there

[@dsoulliere1217]

@@haydenradican8223 makes sense

[@manager4409]

Probably got ignored due to his height. There are also many position players in college who can throw 90s on flat ground and if u put them on mound would be around this velocity.

We currently train a few thousand pitchers remotely who then have the option to visit the facility in Charlotte for weeklong visits at a time. 90%+ are fully remote though. Here's how it all works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJWVdnSkbtl9eq8
