Reply to "exit velos at showcases"

PBR loves to highlight the big exit velos and many times its misleading into their overall assessment of the player. I know many who practice and mastered the techniques to use for putting up the big numbers. Their swing isn't even close to resembling the same during their BP or in a game. Similar with OF velo. Throwing the ball on a downward plane, and skipping to the target can get you increased speed.  Some are very good at being "showcase players" but don't necessarily bring the same skills to the field.

I think you can manipulate the numbers a little but not that much. Maybe you can pick up a few mph but not much more.
