velocity differential obviously isn't the be all and end of of success...I mean Barry Zito even today still has a 15-18 mph difference between his 88 mph fastball and his 70 mph overhand curve. But Aumont's slider with dropping action is VERY deceptive too...great arm action and late movement when he's throwing it well. There are not too many power pitchers that have that kind of velocity spread...King Felix has it (95-98 mph fastball, 83 mph curve, 88 mph slider) but he doesn't showcase it as much as I'd like him to. I think you're going to see Aumont move quickly up the ladder this year. he may finish the season in AAA
