Reply to "Long toss vs. actual pitching velocity"

So I would like to know where the the statement comes from that someone here has yet to see a good pitcher who can't throw around 300ft.

That's right- beat it into the ground like any other thing I mention. I was making reference to my own personal experience with the kids whom I personally knew on our HS team, past and present. Every single one of the kids who threw in the 80's from the mound can also throw around 300 feet. Some a little less and some a little more. I have always seen mound velocity correlate with throwing distance.

Why debate this any longer?
