Reply to "Tips for Showcase Bullpens"

Well you could always have him chug a double dose of C4 and chase it with a Redbull before hitting the mound. I wish I was just joking, but that's what the competition is often doing.

To not joke. With experience at the showcases he can learn to pace himself. Its a long day for pitchers. Even longer when you don't know your exact time to pitch during the day. As the day drags on, just stretch, hydrate properly, and try to stay loose. Hard to do sitting and waiting your turn if you are deep on the list, or the weather is August hot, or December 35 degrees. Observe learn and pace yourself to be ready is the only advice to give. Do not warm up 5 times to finally throw the 5th time. If he can throw 84 he can throw 84. or more.
