Ron or others who have watched or listened to DJaxx games: What's the story on Ryu's fastball velocity this season?

 

If he throws 40 fastballs in a game, what kind of breakdown would you think there would be for >92, 90-92, 87-89, and 83-86? I'm under the impression that he's somewhat like Brownlie, a guy who's going to need to win in spite of his fastball velocity rather than because of it. Is that accurate?

A few starts ago, Ryu was clocked at 95 and 98 in the 3rd or 4th inning (Ron seemed to think the radar was missing a bulb or something was wrong with it). Later in that same inning, he was clocked at 89 mph. I have no clue on the breakdown, but I did spit out my Coke when I heard that 98 mph reading. And I looked something like this: :shock:.

Did you really spit out your coke or are you just using exaggerating for added effect?

 

and if you did really spit it out, did some go through your nose? :newugh:

I'm a Ken man myself.

 

obligatory acknowledgement of the street fighter reference

 

That's what I came back to look for!
