That makes sense.
I guess being a a guy that never actually played baseball competitively and just plays softball or tosses the baseball in the back yard with friends it is outside of my realm of experience that:
A.) mechanics can really make that large of a mph difference (I guess I figured if your arm muscles can throw it 95 then they can throw it 95, but I can see how that would be wrong now with rotation, leg drive and all that being a big part of it too)
B.) that ones mechanics could be so bad that even 5-8 throws with them a game might be enough to shred one's arm.
Thanks for the learin'!
