Hi there,
You all gave great feedback for my daughter a while back. I really appreciate it. I the coach for our 14U team and have a couple more pitchers I'd like your thoughts on. Each of them has different coaches...
This girl was our most successful pitcher for us the past year from a consistency standpoint. She has a very good out the back change up to go with her great control of the fastball. When I needed a great game, she got the ball. She's been through a lot of pitching coaches over the years.
My questions about her are:
Is her step TOO big?
Her flip/release looks strange to me...what do you suggest?
Arc on takeup seems to be outside the plane but she comes through on plane? Agree?
Her dad is a coach as well on the team and he'll be watching the feedback to this thread.
Her needs as she moves to 14U this year are...pitch #3 ( what should it be???? ), and more velocity on her fastball. She's at 50 right now. I'd like to see her in the mid 50s come march. She's about 5'6/5'7...
You all don't know how great it is to get your feedback. I've learned a lot about pitching by reading this board and seeing the analysis of these videos. It's perhaps been worth more to me than listening to some of the coaches my daughter's had.
Really cool stuff and I appreciate your feedback greatly.
For more fun, check out this side-view comparison I did of 3 girls on the team out of the 4 pitchers I have. You'll see slo mos from all angles of the other 2 in the future....
Thanks again.
