Chapman - 105.1 mph fastball?!

Post by RENO »

When I turned to the Yankees game last night it was the 9th inning with Chapman pitching. Hit 103, 104 then 105.1 mph! :shock: Just can't imagine how he hits those speeds. I remember the days if you hit 100 it was an incredible thing. When you watch Betances, Miller and Chapman it's pretty much every pitch.

... unfortunate Girardi can't have 'em all playing simultaneously.
Then Yankees might have something ... anything.

He should pitch all 3 at least one full game a week. 3 innings each. Why not? They're just wasting away in the bullpen because the Yankees suck and are rarely in the lead after 4, let alone, 6 innings so they rarely play. They have such weapons that just sit there probably 120+ games this season. Do something different for a change. They just can't think out of the box. The game is so robotic and mindless anymore. They'll also probably trade away 1 or 2 of them and get crap back and still not make the playoffs and suck even more next season! :dislike Oh well. That's why I rarely watch baseball anymore these days. I tuned in for 5 minutes which turned out to be the best part! :lol:
