Multiple things can be true. This is not, in any way, a reason to worry about Strider moving forward. It is also a vital thing to keep an eye on. Unsurprisingly, Strider is a significantly more effective pitcher when his fastball is humming 96-98 than when it’s 93-95. The faster the pitch, the harder it is to hit — that’s not rocket science. But it’s particularly more poignant for a hurler such as Strider who leans so heavily on his fastball.
