Randy and Pedro didn't throw baseballs with goofball mechanics like EVERYONE does these days. Blake Snell has one of the worst motions I've ever seen.

Blake Snell has one of the worst motions I've ever seen. Pedro was an undersized max-effort whip arm pitcher that threw every pitch in the book. RJ threw 184 innings at 44 years old and was a positive war pitcher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 They also pitched during the PEDs era lol so let's not absolve them completely. Yes, the uptick in TJS is likely intertwined with the obsession with spin rate and velo but the horses of that era were more than likely just as guilty of taking a lil somethin' somethin' as the HR hitters.

redsoxsuck05 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 And back then everyone was raging about the infamous inverted W mechanics. I do admit that it's harder to stay invested in the game when all the best pitchers get TJ surgery at least once in their careers. Absolutely BRUTAL start to this season.

Chapman has thrown hard for over a decade 60 plus games a year. Scherzer, Greinke and Kershaw never had TJ as starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
