2019Dad,
Love the research you have done and very interesting stuff. Did you happen to look at any LHP velos in your research? I would guess they might be 2-3 MPH lower, but at power 5 it may be the same. Just curious and thanks again!

I didn't, FriarFred. Only because my son is a righty, so that was what was relevant to me. I'd also guess they'd be a couple mph slower, but I don't have any data on that.

Also, FWIW, I noticed that there were no 95 or above RHPs, and it struck me that (in addition to there not being very many such HS pitchers) they are all likely very high draft picks.
