I think I know what you would like to see on the subject. What changes or increases on guys were from small mechanical refinements, mostly. Sometimes a "lanky" player will show up and get busy in the gym, eat right and put on 30 pounds of muscle, turning into "the man".

Justin Hoyman was such a player. He was mid to high 80's and 150# when he got to Gainesville. He bulked up and added velocity. He is the exception to the rule, though.

More typical changes in performance are tweaking of command, hitting more spots, adding off-speed pitches, understanding how to get through the order 3 or 4 times without getting scored on too badly.
