My son didn't pick up a baseball between Oct-14 and Jan-2. He's now throwing twice a week. They have a permanent radar gun and he was throwing 2-3 MPH less than his top speed from last summer, but 2-3 MPH fast than this time last year. Said he was very happy with it, seeing he's just starting up. I've taught him well, it's all about getting better every year and peaking at the right time!

It's never been about being the hardest thrower at 14U or blasting the gun in January.

Good thread, IMO.
