Count Texas Rangers’ star pitcher Neftali Feliz as another big believer in the FastArm. The hard-throwing Dominican Republic native recently became an endorser for PitchUSA’s signature product.

Last season, Feliz was named the 2010 American League Rookie of the Year after recording a Major League single-season record for saves by a rookie with 40.
Feliz, 22, came to Texas in the blockbuster trade with Atlanta in 2007 that included first baseman Mark Teixeira. He rose to prominence in the minor leagues and was one of the top rated prospects in all of baseball in 2009 and again in 2010.
In 2010, Feliz recorded a 2.73 ERA with 71 strikeouts and 18 walks in 69.1 innings.
Look at the scouting report on the FastArm’s newest endorser…
“He has easy plus velocity, sitting 92-97 mph as a starter and 94-98 in relief, without much effort in his delivery and enough deception that hitters, especially right-handed hitters, don’t see his fastball well at all. His best off-speed pitch is a changeup that he turns over well and that has good fade to it.”
