Velo's can change from outing to outing, so I wouldn't worry about the numbers too much. A kid could have thrown 87-88 last week and for a variety of reasons only hit 84-85 this week. The type of gun can also make a slight difference (JUGS apparently reads 1-2 mph 'faster' than Stalker). Not sure how the leg lift might impact things. Some of the hardest throwers of all time have had a dandy leg lift, but it just depends on the individual's body and the chain-of-movement that finally leads to release. Being out of prime pitching shape would definitely factor in. Just a few thoughts.......
