It's hard with Julks because he has such a great story. He was unexpected to make the roster at all, and his early success was equally unexpected....
Gotcha. Yeah all together the arm is definitely better and makes a difference. When I was looking up stats on arm strength I saw that Dubon has...
In case anyone was wondering, I did a little more research and it looks like Altuve has maxed out at 80 mph, but averages more like 75 mph....
Throwing errors don't really have anything to do with strength of the arm.
I guess my point is, the throws at 2B are much shorter than say SS or 3B, so the reduced time it would take for a throw to get to 1B is much less...

This discussion has been almost as insufferable as the last time the Texans had the opportunity to draft a QB named Young. I don't have a strong...
That would be kind of bizarre timing if they fired Nick after the draft. Maybe they want to take their time finding his replacement and Cal/Hannah...
Man, I can almost hear Bob Uecker providing play-by-play.
Dang, this is an old thread. Lot of posters that are MIA now. I miss Band Geek Mobster.

HELL YES. The first one was so incredibly, and unexpectedly good. I've been waiting for the sequel for a while. And that short trailer has got me...
