HITTING AGAINST HARDEST THROWING COLLEGE BASEBALL PITCHER EVER!!!

[@beegs771]

Gas is expensive, but him throwing that hard is priceless Eric Sim Ulator. I thought 90 mph was gas when we went to Colorado for the Juco world series back in my day. L0l.

[@Tevatron044]

With a bbcor bat, which is what the college guys are using, that double is a pop up to the second basemen. Besr bats are 10-15% hotter than bbcor, BUT they're now using minor league grade balls. If joyce were to play before 2014 when they lowered the seams, i doubt anyone would get a single hit off that man. His speed and movement is just absurd

[@Jjfortyfive]

They don’t use minor league grade balls but sure. Minor league balls have smaller seams than sec

[@Tevatron044]

@@Jjfortyfive they changed to flat seam balls modeled after the milb balls in 2015. The seam height is now .031 average, just like the MiLB

[@logandemar8208]

Jesus loves you all, have a blessed day or night. May His peace be with you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@zohufnm9871]

The double turning into a pop up doesn’t make sense since he absolutely barreled the ball. He could have hit it with a BBCOR and that still would be a double

[@Tevatron044]

@@zohufnm9871 he really didn't. BESR bats were a minor restriction that allowed balls to trampoline off the bat. BBCOR has specific restrictions against this so a ball coming off 85-90 mph on a besr bat is coming off 70-80 on a bbcor bat. They reduced the sweet spot and pop of metal bats severely

Bro it is nuts how late the swing on that 103-104 fastball is. Holly shit, why is this guy not in MLB yet? That groundball you hit in the 5th, that was a beautiful, look like you just sent it to the moon, home run swing

[@mackemforever]

He was good in AA last season. 13 innings pitched in 13 apperances, 11 hits, 4 runs, 20 strikeouts, 2.08 ERA. Hasn't started exactly well this season! Only had a couple of appearances but the last one was very strange. He walked 2 batters, had one fly out, walked another two batters, had 3 batters score after an error by an outfielder leaving a running on 2nd. Hit 3 batters in a row, for another run, and then walked one more batter before being withdrawn! Lots of pace but a lot of control issues at the moment.

[@ryansack5198]

Angels sent Ben Joyce straight to AA this past summer. He continued pitching well (2.08 ERA in 13 appearances out of the bullpen, 13 innings, 11 hits, 0 home runs, 4 walks (2.8 BB/9), 20 strikeouts (13.8 K/9).. actually cutting his walk rate down from his 2022 college season (3.9 BB/9).

Man that’s a lot of stress on the arm though, especially pitching every other day from the pen. He will have to lift like a maniac to keep everything strong enough to support the kind of stress it puts on his elbow and shoulder. I’d have him work on a splitter. Guys sit middle so if you can throw something that drops they’ll waive over top every time.

That's why Scherzer was gettable while also being one of the 3 best pitchers in the entire league from the time he left the Tigers all the way through his last or second to last season with the Nationals. He just pounded the strike zone. Loved watching Scherzer pitching during that time.

[@JohnMegaton2062]

Honestly, that’s a big difference in modern era pitchers who throw harder and guys from 20+ years ago who would go HARD in. Guys today generally don’t (often can’t) throw IN. Previously with guys like Unit, Pedro, or Clemens, if they noticed you trying to jump fastballs out over the plate you would get a heater under your chin or at your knees. They didn’t care. Guys don’t do that now and it takes a lot of the most important factor against a hitter away: Fear. Guys no know you aren’t coming in, so they dig in. It’s a different feel in the box when you know a guy will challenge you inside versus a guy who lives on the outside corner.
