    I’d love to be a fly on the wall during future conversations with Skenes and Bryan Reynolds. They’ll have a great conversation in less than 10 words

    Showing 102 then following with an 84 curve is so nasty.

    Its not the 100+ alone that will blow his elbow out its that coupled with the breaking pitches that will catch up to him. More pitchers need to take the prime verlander approach and throw 94-96 and then later on in the game mix in 98-100 once your shoulder and elbow have warmed up to get crunch time outs.

    If anyone had the lowest chance of tj while throwing 100+ it’d be him. He’s a unit his body can handle it way more than these small, skinny dudes in the mlb throwing 100

    This IS a new era where the belief is ‘you CAN increase velocity’ and ‘you CAN hit farther’. In the 2000s your projection from 86 Jr yr would be 92-93.

    Part of the problem. Lots of guys throwing high 90s and triple digits that don't really have the natural physical disposition for it. Also, I know literally nothing about biomechanics or medicin.

    Nobody is wishing or wants these guys to get hurt. It’s just the fact that everything points to this guy inevitably tearing his arm to shreds. It’s sad that’s what the game is doing to these guys but until they care about themselves at 60 years old then a game all these dudes will get hurt.

    Another reason why baseball will continue to be the least dominant major sport. The service time and arbitration are so fucking stupid, lets see drafted players be great rookies immediately like they can in any other league.
