¿Quién lanza a 99 mph a sus 39 años? Sólo hay un nombre en la lista
¿Quién lanza a 99 mph a sus 39 años? Sólo hay un nombre en la lista
Cuando arranque la Serie Mundial, Justin Verlander tendrá 39 años y 250 días de edad. Y cuando suba a la loma el viernes en el Juego 1, probablemente veremos rectas de 97, 98, y quizás de 99 millas por hora.
Será algo que los fanáticos del béisbol de hoy nunca han visto en el escenario de postemporada. La velocidad de Verlander, a su edad, es algo sin precedentes para un lanzador abridor en la era del rastreo de pitcheos – especialmente en los playoffs. Mucho menos de un pitcher en su primera campaña de regreso de una cirugía Tommy John.
Abrir un juego de Serie Mundial a la edad de 39 años es algo bien raro. Solamente 16 serpentineros lo han hecho. Abrir un juego de Serie Mundial a la edad de 39 años y superar las 95 mph es cosa totalmente aparte.
Justin Verlander
101 mph vs. the Yankees in the 2006 postseason at age 23
Pero Verlander lo va a hacer. La velocidad promedio de su recta en los playoffs es de 95.4 mph. Dieciséis años después de que el derecho registrara bolas rápidas de 100 mph a sus 23 años de edad en la postemporada del 2006, Verlander ha superado las 98.5 mph en 2022.
En era del rastreo de pitcheos, la cual comenzó en 2008, solamente ocho abridores han tirado un lanzamiento en la postemporada a la edad de 39 o mayores. Para entonces, la recta de todos ellos estaba en declive. Excepto la de Verlander.
Velocidad promedio de la recta en postemporada para un abridor de 39+ años
Era del rastreo de pitcheos (desde 2008)
Justin Verlander, 2022 Astros -- 95.4 mph
Bartolo Colón, 2013 Atléticos -- 91.2 mph
Adam Wainwright, 2020 Cardenales -- 90.3 mph
Tim Hudson, 2014 Gigantes -- 90.2 mph
Rich Hill, 2019 Dodgers -- 89.7 mph
Adam Wainwright, 2021 Cardenales -- 89.5 mph
Andy Pettitte, 2012 Yankees -- 87.9 mph
R.A. Dickey, 2015 Azulejos -- 82.8 mph
Jamie Moyer, 2008 Filis -- 81.9 mph
¿Y la recta más rápida de Verlander esta postemporada, a 98.5 mph? Fue un ponche. Dejó congelado a Matt Carpenter con una potente recta en el Juego 1 de la SCLA en contra de los Yankees.
No sólo se trata del ponche con la recta más rápida por parte de un lanzador de 39 años en la postemporada, sino que es el ponche con la recta más rápida para cualquier pitcher en el ocaso de sus 30. Mayores de 35, los únicos serpentineros desde el 2008 en registrar un ponche en la postemporada con una recta de 97 mph o más son Verlander, Charlie Morton, el dominicano Fernando Rodney, Billy Wagner y Ryan Madson. Y el ponche con una bola rápida de 98.5 mph de Verlander sobre Carpenter es el más rápido de todos.
Ponches con la recta más veloz en postemporada para pitchers mayores de 35 años
Era del rastreo de pitcheos (desde 2008)
98.5 mph -- Justin Verlander, 2022 Juego 1 SCLA
97.9 mph -- Justin Verlander, 2022 Juego 1 SCLA
97.9 mph -- Charlie Morton, 2021 Juego 4 SDLA
97.7 mph -- Fernando Rodney, 2013 Juego 4 SDLA
97.7 mph -- Fernando Rodney, 2013 Juego 3 SDLA
La velocidad de Verlander en esta postemporada viene tras una campaña regular en la que promedió 95 mph; más de lo que tiraba antes de la cirugía Tommy John – su recta de cuatro rectas tuvo una media de 94.6 mph en su última zafra completa antes del procedimiento, en el 2019.
Alcanzó incluso 99.3 mph en su apertura ante los Marineros el 23 de julio, siendo el pitcheo más rápido que haya lanzado en un partido desde el 4 de agosto del 2017, y luego registró un ponche a 99.2 mph en esa misma salida; la velocidad más alta que alcanza para completar un abanicado desde que tiró 99.2 el 21 de julio del 2018.
Lanzando por encima de las 99 mph, Verlander ha conseguido la velocidad más alta para cualquier lanzador mayor de 35 años en la temporada regular o playoffs, desde que comenzó a medirse la velocidad.
Mayor velocidad para un abridor sobre 35 años
Temporada regular y playoffs, desde la era de la medición (2008)
José Contreras, 2009 Rockies -- 97.2 mph (37 años)
Dicho eso, a lo largo de la temporada regular y la postemporada, Verlander ha lanzado más de 98 mph 16 veces en el 2022. Es la mayor cantidad para un monticular mayor de 35 años en la era de la medición. Los únicos en superar las 98 mph a esa edad son Morton (siete veces en el 2021), Scherzer (una vez en el 2021) ... y el propio Verlander (cuatro veces en el 2019, cuando tenía 36 años).
En la rotación de la Serie Mundial de Houston, Verlander es el de más edad por una década. Y sigue siendo quien lanza más fuerte.
Los primeros dos oponentes de Verlander en los playoffs fueron dos lanzallamas: El dominicano Luis Castillo de los Marineros y su excompañero Gerrit Cole con los Yankees. Y hay otro esperándolo, Zack Wheeler de los Filis. Cuando Verlander ingrese al escenario más alto, volverá a desafiar la edad con una recta con la que puede competir contra cualquiera.
