With another start under his belt, Fister's velocity didn't hold up. Let's look at why and compare it to other seasons.
Last week I wrote an article discussing Doug Fister's sudden uptick in velocity that was closer to the velocity that he showed in his successful seasons. It appeared to be that some tinkering with his mechanics were to credit as he looked to have a little bit better drive to the plate improving momentum. That momentum allowed for a quicker delivery and a softer front side.
However, that velocity wasn't present in his next start.
