2025: Sits at 98 mph, maxes out at 101
Goes from being an org arm to being the star of a postseason game.
Throwing hard matters.

Many upper-half drills are actually lower-half drills if done correctly.
It's about finding the back hip and using the ground to send rotation up the chain into the arm in constrained positions.
Challenging intensity in something like a 10-toes will expose the arm-isolaters (they'll be stuck in the 70's) until they begin to load/unload from the ground.
It's not about hitting a velo number on a drill, it's about learning or remembering how to move efficiently. Constraints are just a tool.
