Jorge Felix looking deadly after adding several mph in the offseason Tuesday, March 18th , 2053 This offseason, Jorge Felix made a dramatic leap in his pitching velocity, a change that has many excited about his potential for a breakout year. After focusing on strength, mechanics, and explosiveness, Felix added significant speed to his fastball and off-speed pitches, with results that have turned heads coming into spring training. Jorge Felix worked closely with the Cork Claws strength and conditioning staff, following a rigorous training program designed to maximize his power. By emphasizing lower-body strength, rotational power, and explosive movement, Jorge Felix was able to generate more velocity without losing command or control. The work paid off and he consistently sits several miles per hour faster than last season. This bump in speed should also help his secondary pitches as well, preventing hitters from sitting on his offspeed pitches. “It's been a huge focus for me this offseason,” Jorge Felix said. “I’ve been working on generating more power from the ground up, and I’ve been able to push my velocity to a level I didn’t think was possible. It’s been exciting to see the progress.” With his newfound velocity, Jorge Felix is poised for a much larger role in the coming season, and his increased speed has made him one of the most exciting arms to watch this season. |
