Pitchers

kbsbll,

I'm a 15 year old freshman. I throw a consistant 82mph. However, when hitters see me step on the mound, they expect 65-70 mph. I'm not the biggest kid out there, I'm only 5'7" and 132 lbs. I have 3 pitches: 4 seam fastball, curve, and a 3 finger change.

Hey im a 16 year old sophomore playin varisty ball, i consitantly hit 85mph on my fastball both two, and four seams....i also throw a power and "big hook" curve....i like to use my knuckle curve as my k pitch because the bottom drops out of it about 5feet before the strike zone....great control on my pitches too

15 yr.old freshman.
left handed, consistent 76-78. high 81.

In our district (7 teams, AAA), we have one kid who throws 90-92 and four who are in the 85-89 range. There are any number of kids in the 81-84 range. At the low end of that range you will get pummeled unless you have Maddux-type control, movement or off-speed stuff. (Or maybe just a classic "crafty southpaw".) In high school, it's easier to find hard throwers than Maddux types. Lots of big strong kids, but it would be expecting a lot to demand that a teenager truly master the art.

Midlo dad just curious were your from? I play in the southeastern district (AAA) and you basically described our district.

im in 8th grade, throw 82-84, and a 4 seam, 2 seam, and changeup

I am 14 and am will be a freshman next season. I currently throw a 4 seam fastball and a circle change. Next season (when I'm 15) I will add a curveball and a 2 seam fastball.

I have been clocked at 77 for my highest and work around 74-75. Change-up is around 58-61.

I just recovered from a tendon injury from over pitching. Currently I am only pitching mid seventies while I try and build up my arm, especially endurance.

I Throw a 4s fastball, slider, and a circle change with a sinker under development. My fastball has slight movement to it and I have very good placement with it. I am a junior in highschool and I expect to be hitting 80 atleast once I fully recover.

I've never relied on speed to strike anyone or get the groundout. I simply out think the batter and have him guessing.

16 soph
4 pitches
2 seam/ 4 seam fb
change (use 2 and 4 seam grips)
curveball 12-6
high 70s coasting

im 15 and going to be a sophmore
3 pitches- fastball 2 and 4 seam, bear claw change, curve ball
i throw low to mid 80's the fastest i have topped out at was 87

junior 16 y/o. not a whole lot of velocity cruising in the mid-high 70's but rely on location, changing speeds, and movement. I throw a 4 seam FB (cutter movement after arm slot change), 2 seam FB, circle change, and 12-6 curve. Surprisingly my out pitch is my change, which is improved with good deception and late sinking action.

I throw about 55-62 and can hit a sweet spot on a bat.
So I coach LL.

18 years old senior. i throw 4 seam, 2 seam, circle change, slider, and curveball. i dont get past 84. its all about location lol. i have natural movement though.

15 y/o Freshman LHP, 75 mph fastball, slider, change-up, cutter, sinker, curveball (still a work in progress but I do throw it in games)

Their velocity should go up by 5MPH when the get on a 60/90 field.....

 

12YO's don't belong on a big field. 

Seriously 12YO velocity varies between 56-80MPH.
