Nice article with GIFs of Alex's stuff.

That sounds wrong, but it's too late to change it now

Just think of the movement he'd have with last year's ball.

It's a 12/6 er because he comes so over the top . much more difficult than an east/west curve/slurve. And if contact is made it's usually a ground ball unless he throws a hanger , which he hasn't done much of at all ....

Um, it's not a 12-6 curveball. It's a slider he throws at 82-84 mph. The angle of the camera might make it look like it's moving more downward than to the left, but it's definitely moving across the plate.

Straight runnin' FILTH

His curve and 4 Seam are already big league pitches. When he really gets a hold of his change and two seam he will be untouchable in college

He throws it way too hard for it to be a 12-6

fastball was legit, KS was ready to throw ball back, but had to wait for the bat to get thru the zone...
