Let's not waste any time. Rays fans have already waited too long for this post.
You'll have to click through for the pretty GIFs, though.
David Price is one mean fireballin' lefty. I could post his stats and his
PITCHf/x makeup here, but honestly, other sites have done that to death and
it's not worth repeating the work for no particular reason. You all know that
he dominated in college and cruised through the minors, so let's get down to
the nitty gritty.
Price worked in the 90's during his whole tenure, hitting 97 mph occasionally.
His delivery is fluid and scouts love his stuff and his loose arm action. Most
people aren't worried about his arm trouble before, and neither am I. The
videos below will indicate why.
Boy, that's pretty, isn't it?
Arm Action / Tempo
Here's what we can take from David Price's arm action:
* Tempo: Price is 20-21 frames from maximal leg lift into footplant. That's
a bit slow, but he is a big boy. I give him an Average grade.
* He embodies the "sit down" motion that Nyman followers love. For the
record, so do I. You find this type of mechanic in Roy Oswalt and Tim
Lincecum as well. It's not "Drop and Drive" like Tom Seaver, but more
like "Get it and Go" (credit: Carlos Gomez). It helps to pick up tempo
and maintain an aggressive delivery.
* Price does have a bit of "wasted motion" as Will Carroll would like to
say, but it's nothing major. Clayton Kershaw has the same "problem."
Nothing to worry about.
* His arm action into the high-cocked position is beautiful: The hands
break at the belt, they go down, back, and up in a pendulum swing with
no signs of early pronation. The following images prove that:
Price with his hand on top of the ball during the pendulum swing
Price with the ball facing 1b and not CF - No Early Pronation!
* At the point when the shoulders begin to turn, David Price's arm is
nearly vertical. This is excellent and shows no signs of timing flaws.
(You can see this in the two frames I paused for a second each.)
* Additionally, note how Price keeps the elbow below the shoulder. This is
another great sign for future health.
* I grade his Arm Action as Excellent.
Ball Release / Followthrough
* Does this followthrough remind you of anyone I like? It should:
* Price has a more aggressive followthrough and finish, simply because his
mechanics are more aggressive and because he throws significantly harder
than Justin Duchscherer.
* Price firms up the front side very well and uniformly decelerates his
arm while pointing the pitching arm shoulder at the target. He brings
around his leg, not leaving it on the mound, completing the deceleration
phase.
* I grade his ball release / followthrough phase as Excellent.
There is a ton to like about David Price. The only thing I'd like to see is a
bit quicker motion to the plate, but it's hardly worth fixing if it causes him
even the most minor of troubles with velocity and/or location.
Rays' fans - you've got a good one on your hands. Scouts weren't wrong when
they said he could get out major league hitters right now.
