Default Re: Probably stupid baseball hypothetical...

Sure, it's possible, I guess. Bob Feller was probably the hardest thrower in all of baseball, but without radar guns of today, it's impossible to tell. Nolan Ryan could throw 102-103 mph (reportedly verifiable readings, unlike many numbers today thought to be the result of juiced speed guns), and with knowledge of nutrition and physical fitness always improving (along with technology and medicine), it seems possible to hit 105-110 within our lifetimes.
