    RIP, based my whole motion off of ventura. Was devastated that he passed so young, we missed out on a generational talent for real
  • @donaldhunt4
    I love the way you explain it all. You really know your stuff
  • RIP kid you was truly a great one. Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 will forever remember you.
  • @Oshri500
    RIP, one of the most electrifying pitchers ever, even if he had a beef with Manny.
  • @DEValentine
    Amazing how Ventura could reach such high velocities with no drift and a pretty steep uphill delivery.
  • there are more triple digit and high 90's pitchers today than in any other time in MLB history. It is no wonder why the increase in KO's. there is nothing batters can do to give themselves more time to see the ball...
  • As a former pro pitcher I can say that all arm potential can be based off long toss, if you can’t full out effort with a crow hop throw a baseball 340ft on a fly at 45 degree angle their is absolutely no chance of you throwing 95 mph! It goes against physics! However to your point, I have seen numerous outfielders who could throw a baseball between 360-400ft but they can’t throw harder then 86mph from the mound. With solid mechanics like these being shown you can harness that overall power and arm strength to the mound! I do agree with some of this work most pitchers can add 2-3 mph consistently. Nice work.. When I played they did not focus much on hip flexors and more power and flexibility in hips.
  • @MrCctvtech
    "Pimping that follow through " is a great cue. After teaching my 13u that, his velo picked up and it seemed like a lightbulb went off as another piece of the puzzle fit in. He always gets a laugh when I say it also.
  • @therealbs2000
    The 2000s yankees rotation had mussina and pettitte around, two seesaw legends
  • @Kopavi27
    His mechanics seem pretty counter to what is taught by a lot of pitching coaches. I imagine Trevor Bauer would not like these mechanics at all. Very little to no drift, It actually looks like he doesn't create much drop, not a lot of hip to should separation, his hips are late because of counter rotation but no doubt he has an amazing arm and incredible range of motion. His block is extreme causing the recoil. It's incredible to see so many different mechanics work for elite pitchers.
  • @A.G.G.
    Can you please break down José Fernández's abnormal pitching in a future video good sir?
  • @user-cs3hi8zp7p
    Yes...wingspan AND finger length also has some say in there.
  • @SquishDaBug
    It’s fascinating how similar pitching & hitting are with anchor, stretch & slack, etc
