good to at least see starlin hit one well the other way

definitely this team needs to work on breaking balls every time they do BP. can they hire some retired dude to toss breaking balls in BP every day for a month? lol

97 from Motte...?

 

Hot gun or is he getting back to Card closer form...?

 

He's been hitting 97 pretty consistently all year long.

 

Really...?

 

Be interested in seeing what his average fastball velocity on the season is....I haven't seen every game TBH....but I don't recall him hitting that anytime I did see him.....wouldn't be the 1st time I was wrong though that's for sure.

 

94.9.

[sneakypower]

Junior Lake with that walk swag

[sontensei]

addison looking breaking ball getting fastballs..

[Guest]

Addison you typically don't see 3 straight 90 mph fastballs down the middle of the plate in a single AB, you may have missed your chance

Bear in mind an average velocity of 94.9 does not mean he never hits 97. He was hitting 97 in spring training. And he routinely hits in most of his outings. I've watched most of the games this year and each time he comes in I've seen him touch 97.
