They need a dominant pitcher. Are these all the same kids that played for the Cando team in legion? During summer ball they had a lot of pitchers that threw strikes but nobody to be dominant.Rush23 wrote:Ben Magnusen- Bishope Ryan

Zach Thompson has a good fastball but needs to work on a curveball or some other junk pitch. He throws around 85, but if you put him up against a fastball hitting team he won't do well.

Actually I'm positive he does throw 85. I went to a camp with him where they clocked pitchers and he got clocked at 85. And I'm quite positive I've faced a pitcher who throws 85 thanks.

that tournament bruner was the best pitcher in it hands down. what hurt velva in that tournament was that him and podoll both werent there cuz they were at the legion tournament for the first day so they lost to hazen in the babe ruth tournament. if velva has bruner and podoll they probly would have won it

Thats why Linstad had better numbers across the stat line in 2 starts then both of them including holding Casselton to 3 unearned runs through 6 in the title game. Velva got DESTROYED like 19-2 by Hazen first round. They were horrible without those two there the first round. Hazen then faced Midway-Manvel the next round and got thumped 10-0 in 5 innings on a 2 hitter from Kory Kleven. Casselton got lucky MM folded in the 6th inning of the first game of the title game and came back to win game 2. Casselton beat Velva to get there. Midway-Manvel had outscored their opponents 38-4 going into the title game and took care of Grafton, St Thomas, and Cando pretty handily to get to state.

Ok maybe he got clocked one pitch at 85 giving it all he had, but consistantly in a game I would doubt he gets higher then mid 70's. I'm not trying to totally diss Zach because he is a good pitcher, but I just find it hard to believe he throws 85 in games because I have faced Zach as well as college pitchers who have thrown in the 80's and Zach doesn't throw as hard as them, just sayin

I'm just saying I've faced guys that throw harder then Zac and they can't be throwing 90. Just saying

I would believe that he doesn't throw 85 every fastball, but mid 70's? I don't believe pitchers take 10 mph off their top speed in games. I know I don't. In games I throw probably 3-5 mph slower than when I'm giving it all I got. Speed is a hard thing to gauge though. Different arm angles and pitching motions can make a pitch seem faster or slower than it actually is.

i am going to agree with thatguy422 on this one, from seeing thompson's stats in the class b legion allstar game, and how effective he was there, i would agree he is top 5 easily. and from seeing him throw, i agree he averages between 81-83
