Hi all. my son is a 2015 RHP. Last year at PG as a 14 yr old freshman, he was throwing 79. Prior to the start of the season they evaluated him and he is sitting at 82 to 84 topped at 85. They like his command, control, pitchability and his off speed pitches. (i am reading from a report from his showcase team). it says needs to work on increasing velocity. He will talk to them and probably get more info as to what they want him to do, but I was just curious, he will be 16 soon, what should he be throwing. What is average...what would be considered good etc. From his past history he usually gains one or two mph once he gets in full swing of the season, he does band work, long toss, core and leg excercises, running. Is there anything else he should be doing? thanks in advance for your help.
