RRS averages around 88.5-89mph in the rotation.
Yes the break in the curveball was also significant, but the velocity was the primary reason for the difference between the RRS that gets smashed in AAA and the RRS that was effective last start. Cmon now.
Are you and Dr.D seiously trying to tell me that 4mph isn't significant? I need to tell that to Marc Rzepcynski. I'm sure he'd be just as an intriguing prospect at 83mph. After all, velocity stops mattering in that mid 80s range.
