I don't see anything "wrong" with the delivery so much. I do think he would pick up velocity if he broke his pitching hand from his glove a hair sooner, so that he could get the arm up in the back sooner and get his hand more out front at release. He has a slight arm drag and while this can increase "action" on the ball, particularly for a lefty, it does hinder velocity somewhat. But 84 mph for a lefty is fine, esp. if he has good off-speed stuff and good spot control. You may lose some tailing action as you get more out front on release, so you have to consider what's more important to you, what works best for him. Ultimately it's more important to get batters out than to light up RADAR guns.
