When does Jeremy Jeffress pitch? - Now with Video

[scottfossum]

Does anyone know when Jeremy is going to make his debut with Power?

[DHonks]

I've been curious about this as well. I would think tomorrow, as he's been up for a bunch of days so far. Although, Periard didn't follow Ramlow as usual, so I really have no idea. Could be that Alex and Jeremy are going to piggyback tomorrow

[Mass Haas]

Various media reports that have been included in the Link Reports recently have him starting Tuesday in Kannapolis.

Well, the wife's not in labor yet, so i'm going to the game http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

it's only about an hour a way, and i own a fast car, so if she calls, i'll burn back up here...

 

those that are horrified should know that my mother in law is in town to help out http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

she wants to go with me, but the doctor won't let her http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

that's the most emoticons i've ever used in a post...

Jeremy got the first two out then gave up 2 solo home runs then got out of the first inning. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/embarassed.gif

 

No runs in the second inning. Looks to have settled down.

[trwi7]

5 innings 3 earned runs 3 BB 3 K's. Not a bad outing at all.

ok, here's a link to the first two videos:

 

Chris Carter goes deep

 

Jeremy in the third inning

 

There's three more, and i will post them as soon as i can get my stupid computer to upload them...also, if you are dying for the high quality version, i could probably be convinced to send you a 600 Meg email...

Pogo,

I work with Video all the time for football, I use a different program but I think you can use Windows Movie Maker to shrink the window size but keep the high quality. I'll play with some of my AVIs quick to see.

[TheCrew07]

Well unfortunately the shortest clip I have left is 13 minutes long from the highlight film, and every time I import it into movie maker my system bluescreens on me so I won't be much help.

 

What I was getting at is that you could probably save yourself some time by reducing the window size. You get the same clarity, and much smaller files to work with.

[homer]

That's really cool you did that, Pogo. Thanks.

[brettac1]

Thanks, Brad.

 

He's got a much smoother delivery than Rogers, that's for sure.

[pogokat]

still coming are:

 

the entire top of the second

 

and about a minute of me kneeling behind the catcher while he warms up....

[TheCrew07]

Pogo this is by far the coolest thing I've seen on this site in over 3 years. Thank you very much.

[pogokat]

here's the entire top of the second inning...

 

if you turn the volume up, you can hear me asking the scout what he's throwing and you can hear the scouts talking to each other...

 

Top of the second

game was in kannapolis north carolina...

[TheCrew07]

That play he made on that comebacker was pretty nice, he's got quick hands.

[Tedaldtada]

Thanks for the video. He looks athletic enough to have a huge upside. I hope he puts it all together. What minor league team should he be playing for next year for everyone to be happy? I'm hoping he just advances one level.

[iluvlamp]

Very nice defense. The opposing team wanted me to start singing Gasolina.

ok, here's the final two videos:

 

Jeremy warms up #1

 

Jeremy warms up #2

I'm not a pitching coach (not even to play one on TV), but when you have an over-the-head windup such as Jeffress, is it important to try to pick up the plate and focus on location fairly early in the windup?

 

It seems as though his head shifts to pick up the plate at the very last moment, and I can't but think that's not the optimum for establishing the best location with his pitches.

 

All you little league coaches out there, chime in on my assumption...

[DHonks]

I don't know Mass. What I noticed is that he almost seems too loose with his posture. It's kind of like his body is never at rest before the delivery. Too much looseness and motion affects a golf swing...might it affect a baseball delivery?

 

Personally, I'd love to see more kids learn the simply mechanics of Suppan. His windup is effortless, with little excess movement.

[pogokat]

it was fun to watch him warmup...

 

in between those videos, john curtis (pitching coach) took him aside for a minute and talked to him...as soon as you guys are willing to get in on buying me a boom mic, i can get ino on stuff like that...

 

jim rooney was also at the game...and after JJ came out, rooney, jeffress and curtis went to the clubhouse, i assume to go over everything with him...

[imblotto]

Just an idea for the high quality vid:

 

Divide it up into rar files and upload them into something like Depositfiles.com

 

Its free and doesn't have a download limit.

That second pitch to Gilbert (at around the 2:10 mark of the video) is just straight smoke.
