RE: Are MLB pitchers becoming bionic? 105mph Fastball....sick!!!

That's unbelievable. You can't hit what you can't see. I don't know anything about this guy, but if he's wild he could hurt someone very badly with a pitch. Training regimens and knowledge of nutrition have improved, but the players themselves continue to get bigger, stronger and faster. I think that's one of the reasons we see more injuries in football. When I was a kid watching the NFL, offensive linemen were about 260 and linebackers were generally in the 220s or so. Players who could run 4.7 in the 40-yard dash were considered fast. Guys that size who play those positions would have a hard time making an elite college football team these days.
