Thumbs up And TC is my witness

I never said just any 90 mph pitcher could throw a rising fastball.

I am only defending those with a little extra talent found in their right shoulder. I certainly, and billions of others who have tried unsuccessfully, have never possessed that special talent either. MLB Scouts have seen them and do believe they still exit. There is a LARGE signing bonus waiting to be earned if you find one of them. I have been told that it is harder to find a young man who can throw 100 mph baseball than it is to find a needle in a haystack. I suppose this diamond in the rough could go on to become a RISING STAR at the center of the diamond.
