Pitchers run speed to slow?

[smalls005]

Does anyone else believe pitchers run speeds are way to slow? I can not begin to count the times that I've been left shaking my head and laughing at just how slow the pitchers are in the game. I mean these are MLB players that are some of the top athletes in the world but according to the show none of them run under a 8.5 60 yd sprint. Sorry for the rant.

The average for potential middle infielders or centerfielders is 6.5-7.0. An athletic pitcher is said to be one that can run it in 7.4 or less, but the 60 yard dash is relatively unimportant when it comes to pitchers. Just some numbers, take from it what you will.
