09/25 CUBS (Harden) @ NY Mets (Martinez) 6:10pm CDT, CSN+

[PrimeTime]

Umm his fastball is in the mid eightes..

[UMFan83]

83,84,78 MPH

 

3 changeups I hope

[Guest]

Gameday had those as changeups.

[PrimeTime]

86 is his highest fastball so far

[hotshot13422]

83,84,78 MPH

He's thrown six pitches and none of them were faster than 84. They say they're changeups though

[UMFan83]

3 straight in the dirt....he cant seem to find his release point

I seriously don't see the fascination with Harden's velocity. He's not going to let it all hang out in a meaningless tune up game.

Nope, but it would be nice to see him get one in the 90s at least once.

[UMFan83]

This isn't the Harden we saw in July

There's a big difference between "letting it all hang out" and throwing 10 MPH less than what you usually throw.

[cubs121]

He isn't looking good..

[PrimeTime]

I think his hardest pitch was 87 MPH..

From the guy who is waiting for his arm to fall off. Thanks Mr. Doom and Gloom.

Whatever dude, if you're saying you aren't at least a little concerned about the lack of velocity then you're in denial.

Talk to me after the first inning of his playoff start, then we will see who is right...This game is meaningless, seriously.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Does anyone else have Dish Network? I found the game listed in the guide on an alternate sports channel, but it's just a Dish Network screen saver with no game.

Of course this game is meaningless, but Harden's velocity is far from meaningless. Seriously, it's hist first start before the playoffs, his velocity is way down so far, and we aren't allowed to voice concerns? Get outta here.

[RedFlash]

Harden lack of velocity doesn't coincide with the fact that he has pitched the most innings since 2004? Not to mention 2006 was the last time he pitched in September. So I will write it off as someone who is pitching into new territory.

Well yeah, but that's the point and that's why there is concern.

[mikeyt34]

Dexter, I'm not trying to argue with you. It's just that you seem to have more negative concerns about things, rather than positives on a regular basis.

[kujay]

I'm up home in the north 'burbs for the weekend and can't find the game on Comcast digital.

 

What channel?

 

Thanks in advance.

[Guest]

Don't mess with 2-finger Koyie Hill.

[UMFan83]

Micah: Please include me on your postseason roster. Dump the fat dude.

[mikeyt34]

Somebody wants to be on the postseason roster...To bad there probably won't be any room for him. Go Micah!
