cheating spin rates and stuff

Here is Verlander’s four-seam spin rate last year with Detroit: 2,538 rpm.

Here is Verlander’s four-seam spin rate last year after his trade to Houston, including the postseason: 2,569 rpm.

He was hurt, and improved his mechanics (less arm flyout).

I think they have him throwing his slider more too.

He was pitching well with Detroit and his velocity was mid-90s with them too.
