Your balls must be made of brass...

Are you also from Grant's Pass?

One of my all time favorite limericks.

Yeah as you get older, the balls get bigger!

Where are you watching this competition? Is it on TV?

Drafted by the Dodgers. Spent 5 years in their system before being traded to the Mets. Played AAA ball then blew an elbow.

97 mph fastball and you never made it to the majors, even as a reliever? wow.... did you have control issues....did you lack command of your other pitches (change-up, curve, slider)...

i still remember how awesome Todd Van Poppel was in HS...he would have gone to UT...and should have. The A's signed him and he was a complete bust, but man did that kid have a cannon when he first got to the Bigs

If throwing hard was the only perquisite for getting to the big leagues, we'd have a lot better pitching in today's game than we do. Unfortunately, being able to fool hitters is a lot more valuable than simply throwing really hard.
