BTW, I'm pretty sure he threw 90+ before going to pro ball. I think velocity leaves in a hurry once you hang it up.

I think so too. I saw a late-20's, former 95 mph college pitcher (high draft pick) throw in an alumni game last fall and he couldn't have been more than low 80's just a few short years later. No serious injury that I know of.

Here is the partnership referred to earlier. Perfect Game for a long time has had a big interest in performance, potential, and reducing injuries. We feel that this is the best program ever to help young pitchers. The staff is second to none as anyone can clearly see. Rick and his staff will be at the Metrodome in Minneapolis next week talking to pitchers and parents at the PG National Showcase. They will be attending several other PG events as well.

PGStaff - Do you know if they will be attending any of the PG events at East Cobb?

Thanks!

We are still working out the final schedule. However, the PG WWBA tournaments in Marietta are very high on the list. I'm pretty sure they will be there for at least part of July. Possibly they will also spend some time in Florida at the BCS tournaments.
