This video is a perfect representation for throwing hard not being as important as hitting your spots and mixing up your pitch types and locations

[@blankname6629]

@@mrstealyurgirl2467 u might want to look up the careers of Greg maddux and Jamie Moyer. Maddux is on the record saying he used to throw slower if his command was off it helped him regain his command and it was a slower speed than what the hitter was used to seeing so it would buy him time till he found his command

[@ryanpolly7228]

velo matters

[@mrstealyurgirl2467]

@@blankname6629 I know, I pitch the same way. I have no velocity but I use 4 pitches that all move differently and have their own speeds. This guy has fastball slider, maybe a changeup hidden in there but it was hard to tell. Eric should've just been taking the slider since he was locating it well off the outside edge and sat fastball and crushing anything in the zone

Just another example of command and being able to mix pitches much more important than high velo but velo looks cool for the coaches and scouts for sure

[@TheChainChasers]

The kid has good secondary stuff. Solid depth to the slider and nice run on the change

[@chadmanl2121]

Dave, don’t you think if he got a little stronger, cleaned up some mechanics, he can be 85-88? His secondary is good, lots of movement.

[@TheChainChasers]

@@chadmanl2121 that could be said for every player this age nearly. The fact he's not doing it is why he's d3. He pitches like I did. Mid 80s and a bunch of junk to keep folks off balanced. Reaching that next level takes an exponential increase in work and dedication. He's probably OK with just getting a degree and playing ball these extra few years.

[@chadmanl2121]

@@TheChainChasers I think playing for fun and getting a degree from an excellent D3 school is the smart route to go. D1 is a full time job and it’s so stressful looking over your shoulder for the next guy. My 15 yr old freshman is 82-83 and you wouldn’t believe how much time he spends lifting and working on his mechanics. I’m constantly telling him I’d rather play at a highly academic D3 than a crappy D1 academic school! He’s determined to hit 90 by junior year and hoping to get looks from the Ivies. For me, if you’re fortunate enough to play ball after high school at any level, that’s an amazing accomplishment.

[@ShowMeUrOhhFace]

guess i got lucky at my d3. i was one of the closers, throwing off speed mainly and 2 seam mid 80s, and the 3 starters were 2 rights throwing 91-92 and a lefty throwing 93-94. lot of people called us the d1 rejects since we all had something wrong with us. for me it was being 5'6. no one wanted a midget pitcher

[@drakewarner1230]

Just like every level it depends on where you go. I had teammates at Juco who went D3 and threw low 90s with decent off speed. Some people just don’t get the chance to be seen and go to higher levels like they should

[@kyle3402]

Honestly talent is everywhere! I was a closer to two nasty dudes in high school. The worst was I was actually pretty nasty just with a list of health problems so I wasn’t looked at (gladly so i probably need Tommy to pitch again) and the ace I closed after the most had back to back no nos. I’d love to see prime Jack Wheeless against Eric cuz that dude was NASTY (he was D2 js)

[@matthewwinck687]

83-84 is really good. Bump it a couple mphs the next two years, you will be sitting 90. You can do it!

[@devinthompson3820]

I don’t know who reads these comments but who ever does can you tell Trevor that we are having our alumni game on Sunday and tell him that we all want him to come. People don’t think he will come but I believe Like this so they will see it (Edit) I’m a freshmen btw

[@Otrebor0707]

Watched D3 college baseball games in Northwest Conference. Majority of pitchers had fastballs over 90 mph. One dude was pumping 95 mph. All exciting games. I’ve watched D1 games with pitchers barely touching 90 mph & multiple errors. If you put top teams from every level, you’ll have a competitive tournament. Just look at the international tournaments like World Baseball Classic, Taiwan beat Netherlands that’s full of minor & major leaguers.

[@ginavoogd6738]

ooooooohhhhhh upgrade of the folding chairs

[@cwalenta656]

The problem of course is that as one goes down the athletic skill curve, the athletes get better and better and can make those just behind them on the curve look pretty bad, I mean the difference between a pro player and a D1 player can be pretty dramatic in the NBA, but really that is all sports. Essentially the pros are the allstars of D1 and so on, so by the time you get to D3, those players don't compete well, but compared to the population at large? They're actually pretty good!
