Tim Lincecum Performs for MLB Scouts from 15 Teams at Showcase, Throws 93 MPH

Two-time National League Cy Young winner Tim Lincecum took an important step on his Major League Baseball comeback trail Thursday by throwing in front of scouts.

Per FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman, Lincecum was averaging 90-93 mph with his pitches during the workout.

Heyman added there were between 25-30 scouts in attendance from at least 15 teams.

Lincecum's velocity was a vast improvement over where he was at in 2016 when he last pitched in the big leagues. The 33-year-old averaged 87.7 miles per hour with his fastball for the Los Angeles Angels, per FanGraphs.
