Thanks to all for helping prove my point - Velo is king. I think Ironhorse is correct. Max velo at 90 is where you need to be or upper 80's so that your average ball speed combined with release provides decent pop time. By the time the ball slows down at 2b, your velo average is in the 70's (please insert something here on how fast the ball slows down or the faster you throw it the less it slows down - I'm sure there is more to it). Quicker release means you can have a lower max and average. If you have a .1 reduction in catch and throw, how does that affect max and average velocity to equal the same pop time?
