Vince Velasquez pitched one year here in town for the A+ Astros. That was quite a few years ago. I did see him pitch a seven complete innings of no hit ball. He was throwing 99 miles an hour in single A. Once he made it to the big leagues he dialed it back to get his control from a often lively wild fastball. He's not quite had the success I expected either. In fact his era is lower now than it's ever been. That shouldn't last for long around these Big bopper Yankee bats.
