This year’s pitching staff may comprise the best group of arms Texas Tech coach Tim Tadlock has had the pleasure of coaching, and of that bunch, Micah Dallas may be the most lethal.
Despite routinely throwing 91-93 mph and topping out at 95 mph, Dallas doesn’t boast the strongest arm on the roster. He does, however, command a strong mound presence, balancing an aggressive approach with a delicate precision in each pitch in his arsenal. His 83-86 mph slider buckles the knees of lefty hitters and his 83-84 mph changeup serves as an excellent strikeout pitch.
