@@oliverk.8312 for the first 2 weeks with the orioles he was hitting well since then he hasnt been hasnt been as good and also injured think beforenyou say
@@false8507 I think that’s because he needed a change of scenery most of all. Players seem to sometimes go stagnant after a while and need a change. Some players seem to play better for mid market or small market teams than they do big market (and vice versa)
@@Engine33Truckits because he suffered a very bad injury that has changed the career of many players including Mark Texiera who said it made hitting very difficult
@@Engine33Truckidk, I think it was different coaching staff. Highly coincidental that he started hitting better on the Orioles...then the Yankees fired their hitting coach in the middle of the season (something that Bryan Cashman as never done!)
@@Engine33Truckwrist tendon sheath, not pressure. It sapped his power and he never recovered. (I think he could have transformed into a serviceable contact hitter with a little power, if he was willing to give up on trying to be his old self. He tried to hit like he used to, though, and just wound up as a bad version of who he once was.)
Lol for reals I can almost guarantee that fool wasn't running 20.4 mph according to Google the avg running back in NFL runs 22mph no way that dude would be on a RB heels lol
I'm glad that somebody here remembers the fantastic Jesse Barfield, arguably the greatest right-fielder in the history of the game. That guy could launch missles with that right arm.
As a Twins fan, if you had told me this dude would still be talked about/playing 10 years after his stint with the twins I would NOT believe you. 😂 Good for him.
Unless he hangs on the back of the gate to make his entrance, he is not better than Kenny Powers. And I can't stop yelling because that would mean I lost the argument so thank you very much, I love you.
@@user-wg6mu2ju4z Yeah, I think trevor bauer has hit 109 before, and he usually sits 94-96 off the mound, so pulldown velo could be up to even 13mph faster. geez, peak aroldis couldve hit 115
The 106.9 mph throw by Elly De La Cruz was a glitch in the system. MLB could not validate the number because of what it considered bad data; in other words, a system issue tracking the throw. The actual throw was estimated to be somewhere between 102 and 103 mph.

Hicks couldn't find his groove in NYC. At times, he exhibited flashes of a hall of fame type career, but too many injuries and a mindspace that wanted out.

@@spencernene Those numbers were proven. Feller's 98.6 based on the way it was measured at the time, would be just over 107 today measured 10 ft from the mound. Likewise Ryan's 100.9 would be 108 mph 10 ft from the mound.
@@zezezosezadafrak8210 The technology was not good enough to prove that, that’s why chapmans pitch is considered to be the hardest, you don’t have to believe me, but the is the general consensus amount all reputable sources
@@spencernene You're a boron. If Ryan's timed 100.9 mph fastball would have been measured the way they measure them today, meaning 10' from the release point, it would be 108 mph. Feller's would have been 107. Now run along to your job at Walmart and get to greeting those customers genius! 🤡
