The Delivery Value System: Understanding the Role Pitching Mechanics Play on a Pitcher's Long-Term Success

Description

Pitching injuries have resulted in MLB teams paying over $2.7 Billion dollars to pitchers while on the Injured List from 2015 – 2021. While pitching injuries have always been a part of baseball, the rate at which a pitcher suffers a major throwing injury is increasing at an alarming rate. As a pitcher, how do you know if you are more or less at risk of a throwing injury? Or, how do you know if all the hard work you put into your training is helping your skillset skill set as a pitcher? At DVS Baseball, we have the answers, which is the defining difference in why and how we make pitchers better.

In this course, we start with the crucial role pitching mechanics play on the health, performance, and LONG-TERM success of a pitcher. DVS Baseball's mission is simple: We Make Pitchers Better. The foundation of this is the Delivery Value System (DVS), our proprietary, scientifically proven, and medically published pitching bio-mechancial analysis. This analysis allows us to provide a customized development plan for each athlete to achieve their peak performance. This customized plan is known as our Mechanics for Velocity and Performance (M.V.P.) pitching development program, has helped hundreds of athletes achieve success on the mound while maintaining arm health.
