POLL: My Fave CB Baseball Poll, here we go: Verlander is on the mound. He will

6/5/14 9:18am

Knowing what pitch to expect wouldnt be as difficult to make contact with

coug203

6/5/14 9:20am

If he's throwing 70 maybe.

foofcoug

6/5/14 9:21am

you'd get up?

6/5/14 9:21am

Eventually

Verlander: Why is that geezer crawling towards me?

6/5/14 9:26am

it could be like terminator 1 at the end. ff 1:50

6/5/14 9:27am

I'd try to take it in the glutes.

And risk your jean modeling career? What if you have to get a cheekutation?

foofcoug

6/5/14 9:32am

Easy - I'll just replace the implant.

cougfanblue

6/5/14 9:33am

If they are all strikes, I think most baseball people could foul one off

banksters

6/5/14 9:22am

all the same pitch... all right down the middle

6/5/14 9:22am

Yeah, not as difficult as you're making it sound like making contact with 1 of

Basically a batting cage turned up as high as it will go

30% of the responders are delusional

SoCalCoug

6/5/14 9:24am

I said I could foul tip one, but it would be luck

6/5/14 9:25am

I had an unfortunate experience trying to show off for my HCBW at the batting...

cougfanblue

6/5/14 9:30am

LOL, it looks like about 10 CBers

6/5/14 9:31am

Like I said, delusional.

SoCalCoug

6/5/14 9:32am

I have recently seen 95 mhp pitching

6/5/14 9:34am

Next CB outing will be at the batting cages. I expect a report.

i can't catch up to a 80 mph fastball in the batting cage

RC Vikings

6/5/14 9:34am

102mph Verlander or low-90s Verlander?

BYUCoug11

6/5/14 9:36am

either

6/5/14 9:37am

Low 90s... Maybe I could foul tip one. 100s, no way

BYUCoug11

6/5/14 9:39am

Does bunting count? If so, maybe.

byukirty

6/5/14 9:38am

No way I could get myself to square up. That sounds terrifying.

cougfanblue

6/5/14 9:39am

Yeah, I'm sure that would go well.

SoCalCoug

6/5/14 9:44am

And with that, there's no way I'm squaring to bunt.

Verlander's 4-seamer isn't a straight fastball

Verlander's 4-seamer has a lot of horizontal movement and some vertical.

I'm pretty sure I could have 100 swings and not make contact.

A live pitcher isn't going to give you that.

BYUMizzou

6/5/14 10:11am

the hypothetical is we tell verlander to throw a straightish fastball 5 times

6/5/14 10:17am

Hypo was "will pipe only fastballs"

SoCalCoug

6/5/14 10:19am

Pipe only fastballs literally means the same pitch in the same location five

wabluecoug

6/5/14 10:22am

It would take me 100 swings to dial in on the location.

cougfanblue

6/5/14 10:09am

But if you know it going to be right down the middle every time, you don't have

BYUCoug11

6/5/14 10:04am

i would say 9 out of 10 guys would whiff 5 times. probably wouldn't even see it

6/5/14 9:52am

99 out of 100.

SoCalCoug

6/5/14 9:53am

it would be freaking scary just to stand there. most anyone would be bailing

If the pitch is in the exact same location each time and you know exactly where

Scratch

6/5/14 9:53am

I guarantee I could foul one of the 5 off by just squaring to bunt.

RE: I guarantee I could foul one of the 5 off by just squaring to bunt.

6/5/14 10:01am

Yeah, that is one in a million. Most fouled bunts go the other way.

Walter Bellhaven

I'd put on 40 pounds, wear my Panda hat and take him deep 2 times

Seeing Thrill's video in his signature made me think RA Dickey's Knuckler would

A good knuckleball is almost impossible to hit
