I'm going to say there was definite improvement (from spring training). His velocity now is more consistent. I think that's something he's happy with. Of course it wasn't as high as he wants it to be, but it was very encouraging.

In an up cycle, it is very difficult to forecast the velocity of the earnings growth. Therefore, Wall Street prices in a premium for these stocks because it's human nature to be conservative.
Brian Alger
People seem to lose all respect for the past; events succeed each other with such velocity that the most remarkable one of a few years gone by, is no more remembered than if centuries had closed over it.
Marguerite Gardiner
[I've been pitching in pain for] close to a month and it was getting worse, ... It affected my velocity. I was trying to pitch through it. I took the medication and it didn't help. I got to the point where I wasn't helping myself or the team. If I can't go out and pitch normally, there's no point in me being out there.
Rheal Cormier
You look at the velocity of tenants out there looking for space, and you can see it's gone up quite a bit. I think it's just a matter of time when the rates bump up.
David Shapiro
His velocity and location are so good, ... he's one of those guys where you can know what's coming and you still won't hit it.
Larry Rothschild
Velocity is all about speed, balance, power and agility. Our biggest clientele isn't the elite athlete, but the marginal kid on the bench.
Ted Gatewood
I'm very proud of the way he handled it. It's tough to put a number on a kid's heart and Brad had the biggest heart of any kid I've seen. He's driven and very passionate about the game. If anything, Brad is in better shape now, his velocity is up (94-95 m.p.h.) and he's maturing as a young man.
Jamie Brown
My velocity was back up, which I was happy to see that. I was getting ground balls, which was nice to see.
Mark Buehrle
One outing his velocity will be up and he'll struggle with control and his changeup, but last outing he put it all together, ... It's a huge step forward for Carlos and the organization.
Jackie Moore
He's very talented with high velocity, just very overpowering. He's always been in the plans. The talent was projected. We knew he would be tall, and he was always real fluid in his action. He's also a hard worker.
Rick Lepire
Joe has a little more velocity. But Tyler has more command of his pitches. Wade was one of our best pitchers this summer. It takes him a while to get going, so we'll be fine.
Carmen Rivas
Normally, there's too much water in the Arkansas River, too much velocity. If you're a fisherman, you're still seeing the difference today.
Greg Policky
We had the railroad stabilized, we had the velocity we wanted, then we got hit by this hurricane.
Ron Conway
Her curve ball moved very well. She had velocity on her pitches too.
Dave Dwyer
For him, he likes to have it when he's on the mound. He's the type of guy that feels more confident when he has his velocity. You can see him looking up there to see where it is.
A.j. Pierzynski
We wanted the athletes coming into Velocity Sports Performance to know about the rich sports history in Chattanooga. Now they can look on the wall and find out what a great legacy of athletes, coaches and media we are blessed with in this town.
Ted Gatewood
We see a lot of good pitching. In terms of velocity and location.
David Horton
We don't know anything about planets around very young stars because the radial velocity method doesn't work with them.
Charles Beichman
His velocity is picking up every week. He's got enough on it that he keeps them honest.
Todd Wilkinson
We need a high-velocity distribution system, so that we are sending product to where it is needed, as opposed to just sending it.
Bob Willett
He throws a very heavy ball and it's hard to pick up. He has a lot of velocity and his split-finger is fantastic. It's great to know ... that when we have a lead in the eighth or ninth inning, we're going to get that win.
Herman Demmink
You have to locate your fastball and change your speeds. There was nothing wrong with my fastball. I had movement. I had the velocity.
Greg Maddux
I was missing pitches after the third inning and I don't have the velocity to miss.
Brad Hennessey
Without ever seeing him except for this evening, he throws with the long arm and has pretty good velocity. I saw his stats and he was effective against us. He beat us with a pretty good fastball.
Tom Hilbert
As Mike Mussina says, it became mindless for him. He wasn't thinking about his mechanics. Everything was just falling into place. I think that's why we saw the emotion, the intimidation. The velocity is up. His slider is nasty.
John Flaherty
He's low on the velocity side. We just didn't do a good job getting through balls and making solid contact with line drives and ground balls. Guys like that who throw slow ... your swing gets long and you get under it.
David Cash
His velocity is so much better this spring than it was before. You can see the work ethic is paying off for him in a lot of ways.
Joe Robinson
The car was traveling at a velocity that couldn't have been more than 40 kilometers (25 miles) per hour.
Gianfranco Fini
The only place I've seen an equivalent velocity would be on the tabloid entertainment shows.
Andrew Tyndall
We laid it out on the table for him, what his situation was, and to his credit, he's done everything he possibly could do to get back. He's bigger and stronger. We thought his weight was down last year, and it may have affected his velocity.
Mark Connor
I try to compare what I see now to back then and work out his delivery to be the same. I see some velocity coming back. I see him make good pitches and some not-so-good pitches.
Luis Isaac
He is brilliant in terms of velocity and control and he has good off-speed pitches too. Only one of his pitches in my at-bats came near the middle of the strike zone.
Hideki Matsui
Our new designs represent the first major change in constant-velocity joint (CVJ) technology in more than 70 years. Teamwork played a major role in the development process. Engineering groups working together at company research centers in Germany, Mexico, Spain and the USA were able to develop production-ready components in less than three years.
Rob Rickell
What I attribute that to is he has tremendous hand-eye coordination. He can pick up the velocity, the spin, the location of a pitch out of the pitcher's hand quicker than most guys at the college level.
Tim Mcdonough
The sinker he was throwing today was really nice. It doesn't take anything away from his velocity or control.
Koyie Hill
Our data in conjunction with the data that other people have compiled show the two regions have velocity gradients that are opposite each other.
Mike Hollis
I told Thomas to take some of the velocity of the ball, and he started throwing strikes. His form was a little bit off. But he'll be alright. He just needs more reps in practice.
Brian Ainsworth
All of the pitchers have decent velocity, but Tyler and Richie are the hardest throwers. It's a well-rounded staff. None of 'em are soft throwers. Getting them all enough work is not a problem either. Right now, we're starting a streak that will see us play 11 games in nine days. We'll need all of them.
John Groennert
I think he may be a little tired. This is his first year doing it and what's affecting him now is his location. Usually you don't see it in velocity, you see it in location.
John Gibbons
This is about the time that you see an increase in velocity. The scar tissue from the surgery is pretty much done. A player usually gets a comfort level of being over the surgery, and I think that's where Taylor is at this point. His arm feels great and he's got a lot of confidence now.
Ricky Bennett
He was rusty, ... But velocity-wise he was about 91 (mph). He just pitched an inning, but he's out there and healthy and that's a step forward for him.
Jackie Moore
He was unbelievable. His velocity, his location, his breaking ball. It's huge to have him throw like that.
Chad Moeller
The ball was jumping out of his hand. His velocity jumped up with it, his slider was tighter and he had a dominating performance.
John Flaherty
He threw the ball extremely well. He had good velocity on his fastball. He spotted his pitches well. We came out swinging well the whole game.
Richard Labounty
If you drop it below your waist, it's going to be a flatter kick, but if you drop it higher, it will more likely come off of that at a higher angle, ... It's kind of difficult with the drop to get good timing and put it on foot properly. If you don't, then it won't come off with a spiral or with enough force or velocity.
Chris Wright
My changeup, curve and sinker were good. I'm just waiting on the fastball. I need more velocity and I know it's going to come. After I take time off and start throwing again, there's a period when you work through the shoulder soreness. I'm at that point now. I'm right on schedule for the Classic. The fastball should be there for me in Puerto Rico.
Calvin Maduro
We predict that other velocity tracers in the same elliptical galaxies will show higher velocities if they are less concentrated toward the galaxy center or if they move on more circular orbits. This is likely to be the case for compact star clusters, which are also observable in the outskirts of elliptical galaxies.
Avishai Dekel
Convoys are the scariest and most high-risk activity a soldier can participate in. You never know when there is going to be a bomb alongside you or even under your vehicle, ... Also, the guns used in combat in Iraq don't create the kind of wounds a street gun might in America. These guns fire at a much higher velocity, creating a lot more damage.
Andrew Friedman
He had better velocity than he's had and he had good location. Those guys are formidable hitters, and we knew that.
Steve Perkins
He's matured. He's gotten stronger, and he's throwing with a lot more velocity. He's really learning how to pitch.
Spence Chitwood
The resolutions passed at the last meeting produced a great effect out of doors. Timid people took fright at the idea of a shot weighing 20,000 pounds being launched into space; they asked what cannon could ever transmit a sufficient velocity to such a mighty mass.
Jules Verne
John is a very composed pitcher who loves to have the ball in pressure situations. He enjoys competing at the highest level. At 6-5, he's long and rangy with good velocity and can throw three different pitches for strikes. He's not afraid to throw breaking balls when he's behind in the count.
Lee Meyer
In February, traffic worsened versus fourth quarter trends, which caused lower unit sales velocity. This led to significantly lower merchandise margins. Looking ahead, we are focused on driving traffic with improved product and new marketing campaigns that begin this week.
Sabrina Simmons
His velocity is good. He doesn't throw 90 or anything, but he throws a good fastball, a breaker and a splitter and he throws them all for strikes. Something that is huge is that he doesn't walk people. He has a lot of success because he allows less than a walk per start, and if you can keep people off the bases, you can win a lot of games.
Guy Mackay
My shoulder's just a little bit tired, ... Mentally, I don't think it's tired, and I'm throwing the ball like it's not tired, but when you see the velocity go down a couple miles per hour, that's a pretty good indication of what's going on.
Tanyon Sturtze
They have two big velocity guys. They try to get into a rhythm, and they threw a lot of strikes last year.
Bishop John Shelby Spong
Surprisingly, we learned that within the boundaries of obvious pitch velocity and anthropometric differences, elite youth pitchers in many aspects use pitch techniques similar to pro pitching techniques.
Mike Torry
Trading volume was far from what we wanted. Velocity was very low, at about 25 per cent (for the whole of 2005).
Yusli Mohamed Yusoff
As we install things today, it is stuff we have already put in. That should allow us to play at a much faster velocity than we have been. Our players and our coaches understand it all better.
Tim Deruyter
The concern is the elevation and wind velocity at Point Cadet and the cost to rebuild a structure 25 to 30 feet off the ground.
Sharon Walker
It (the slider) just rolls off of your index finger and begins it's spin which will take it down and across the plate (hopefully). Just remember not to twist your elbow or wrist. It should be thrown, with the wrist and grip set, just like your fastball , slightly off center - with the same velocity and intensity.
Steve Carlton
Gary has seen him in practice and loves the way he throws. Gary says he has incredible velocity on the ball. His accuracy is pretty good, too.
Bernie Kosar
We use the derivative to find that a rate of change of distance is velocity and we use integral to find that the area under a velocity curve will give us distance.
Stacey Peters
His dad feels really good about Velocity. Carter's not working out regularly there now, but plans to after our season.
Jon Mattheiss
He thought for a minute and said, 'Now I have eight pitches.' He knew that intuitively. He figured that out, how to add and subtract from his velocity.
Bruce Hurst
Mike came in and threw well (Friday) night, and then came in today to make it back-to-back. He had good endurance and velocity (Saturday), and that was a key for us.
Mike Sansing
I was impressed with his velocity. He lived up to the billing that I've heard.
Pat Borders
His work had a kind of velocity in the way things were made.
Milton Glaser
It was a triumph for the real thing. Five five-day Test matches between two gifted, well-matched teams playing fantastic cricket at high velocity and high pressure with the perfect mix of chivalry and venom. Here was the best game in the world, at its best.
Matthew Engel
It was a good start, but we need to be quicker to the ball and be more active on the court. Our passing and setting were good, but our hitters need to move their arms through the ball faster to develop a higher-velocity attack.
Tim Donovan
I'm real impressed with the newcomers. The pitching, I'm not just impressed with their velocity but their maturity. And what I like about some of the offensive players that are here is that they have good swings. From what I've seen, we have a good chance to be a pretty good team and win some games.
Gary Kendall
In my evaluation of the guy, I think he has really good mechanics and good velocity on the ball, which is a big thing when you play in a stadium that has a lot of wind like (the Jets) do. I think it was a good pick. I'd be really surprised if he doesn't end up being a pretty good player for them.
Gil Brandt
A lot of people are going to be watching the employment report for evidence of whether the economy has hit escape velocity.
Bill Sterling
This was premature and immature given the velocity of the debate.
Eric Ueland
I wonder if any of them can tell from just looking at me that all I am is the sum total of my pain, a raw woundedness so extreme that it might be terminal. It might be terminal velocity, the speed of the sound of a girl falling down to a place from where she can't be retrieved. What if I am stuck down here for good?
Elizabeth Wurtzel
You could tell the last out was tough out for him. He never lost any velocity. He doesn't lose much anyway. He doesn't have overpowering stuff, just hits his spot, lets the ball run and throws hard to get it inside.
