Low Slot Sophomore Looks Absolutely Unhittable | Simon Aluko

[@treadathletics]

Simon Aluko is a nasty low slot Redshirt Sophomore. Who are some low slot lefties that he reminds you of?

I know Im stating the obvious but thats a LOT of horizontal movement.

[@Fighters8-dp8fc]

For anyone who knows, i get pain in the shoulder that shoots down the tricep to the elbow (not soreness, pain) whenever i go above about 60%-65% effort. I have no pain in any other activities, and the doctor cleared any actual problem with the shoulder. It's been a reoccurring issue for about a month and a half now. I've heard that having an anterior tilted pelvis can cause muscle imbalances that can cause similar issues, but im not certain. Im 16 in high-school and literally anything would help.

[@jimlahey3919]

If it were a muscle imbalance you would’ve had these same issues years ago and frequently. Did you figure it out yet? Or still an issue? If it’s already passed, it was probably just a strain that requires some rest. It doesn’t sound like a real issue, just a temporary one off.

Hello. what would you suggest for pitchers who are discovering that they find a lower arm slot more comfortable than like a high release point?

[@thebaseballguy9929]

Throw from a lower arm slot if it’s more comfortable

[@wwjddanny]

@@thebaseballguy9929 right but i’m scared that if i just straight up switch it from one day to the next that i’ll get injured

[@芸術-i2z]

@@wwjddanny then you should play flat ground catch with the new arm slot and see how you feel, if you feel good get on the mound and throw a bullpen, and don't go max effort if you're scared.

[@thebaseballguy9929]

@@wwjddanny yea like the guy above me said you just gotta hammer reps in catch play with the lower slot. just be careful not to over exaggerate the lower slot and drop your elbow down and out of plane with the rest of your upper half

[@treadathletics]

So long as you're in plane with your torso! Here's a video we made about the concept: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYvTdWuJht5jnrs

[@patricknoonan3610]

Pick up the pitch out of the hand and, it still feels like luck, to get a hit.

[@brennan5087]

As a lefty I'd rather just skip the at bat.

[@adamthomas8158]

That slider is gross
