This game is on Apple Plus only. So you have have their app and logon ID to watch. I'll pass. I have enough stuff like that to keep up with. It's too bad because Greene is pitching and is about the only reason to tune in to a Reds game these days.

my point is very clear to understand: hunter greene's velo being down 5-6 MPH on his fastball is a concern, no matter how you try and spin it. will it be nothing? hopefully. my history following baseball makes me a bit concerned here. that's all. you're not concerned at all? good for you.

Hello all - I am as cynical as anyone on here at this point but let’s pump the brakes on Greene panic over velo - there are a ton of reasons he may not have fully dialed it up that are not dire. I have some memory that he had starts like that last year in the minors. Not sure he will be at max velo EVERY start. Your mileage may vary.

I’m not saying he’s injured, could be dead arm or something, but that was an alarming first inning. Pitchers don’t usually drop 6 mph off their fastball randomly. I was more concerned with how much effort it looked like he was giving to reach 95.

mth123
04-22-2022, 07:02 PM
I don't think he's injured, but he needs be managed on the side of caution and was left in too long in both of his starts so far. Maybe the tank is a little low because of it.

TheBigLebowski
04-22-2022, 07:07 PM
I pitched for a long time. There were some weird days in which I couldn’t get it up there like I normally could, and there never seemed to be a legitimate reason. Of course, I was nowhere near 100 and I didn’t have the same disciplined mechanics these guys have, which reduces your variance for oddball events. I don’t think Hunter dropping 5 mph is anything to casually disregard, but it certainly does not mean definitively something is amiss.

We’ll see where he sits the rest of the game. The lack of command combined with the velo drop is obviously concerning. I guess we’ll see. Just be prepared for the worst - the 2022 Reds will not disappoint in that regard.

Maybe it’s humidity. Or he’s not comfortable on the mound.

I pitched for a long time. There were some weird days in which I couldn’t get it up there like I normally could, and there never seemed to be a legitimate reason. Of course, I was nowhere near 100 and I didn’t have the same disciplined mechanics these guys have, which reduces your variance for oddball events. I don’t think Hunter dropping 5 mph is anything to casually disregard, but it certainly does not mean definitively something is amiss.

We’ll see where he sits the rest of the game. The lack of command combined with the velo drop is obviously concerning. I guess we’ll see. Just be prepared for the worst - the 2022 Reds will not disappoint in that regard.

I'm still having that problem.
