I am not going to ask more, but she could make her IG private and not have any creeper followers that she did not let see her stuff. J/S.Yeah, I'm good. I've heard comments all my life about my sister from my friends. Now she has 100k+ creeper followers on IG. I'd rather not exacerbate it or have to hear it on here
Hey...question for you guys that understand technical baseball stuff..
Watching the game again and it looks like to me that Joyce, even though he still hitting big numbers on nearly every heater, is not getting the crazy movement he has shown throughout the season..I wonder why?
He just threw that 101 MPH right down the middle to Riopelle and it was just grooved with no movement. The guy was obviously sitting on the fastball.
I get that he was having an issue with throwing the Slider all over the yard so he was just throwing more fastballs, but I do not understand why lately it seems his fastball is not jumping around like it was. Does anybody have a thought on this?
Movement is created by grip/friction on the threads of the baseball and some of it is arm angle/release point…. If either one of those are off than you won’t get as much movement as normal.Hey...question for you guys that understand technical baseball stuff..

Figured..Joyce is a rare talent as a thrower, but Frank is going to have to teach him how to be a pitcher for him to realize all that potential.Movement is created by grip/friction on the threads of the baseball and some of it is arm angle/release point….

Makes senseI would say there is a small portion of him wanting to throw 106 in front of the scouts. when you try to throw too hard you grip the ball too tight and won’t get the same movement. The same thing happens with hitters that grip the bat too tight. The loose grip helps your hands roll over and the ball gets a good spin and will go farther.
