the definition of a filthy power curve



Ladies and gentlemen, the offspeed pitch that could make Brandon Morrow an ace starter. Combine that with his typical 95-99 MPH fastball at the letters and you've got quite the combination. If he can stay healthy, and if he improves his command, he and Felix could form quite the nasty 1-2 punch in a few years.

I remember John Wetteland throwing a 57 mph curve as a member of the Rangers. That was just not fair.

Greinke used to toy with a 65mph curve and he struck out some pretty good hitters with it. He doesn't use it much any more. That said, throwing that at 84 isn't bad at all.

SI
