Peyton Gilbert says his life goal is to “pitch in the MLB!” Yes, that is … in Major League Baseball!
Accomplishing Peyton’s goal may be a short time in the future, however right now he says his teammate at Columbia, Cameron McClair, and he are the hardest throwing pair of pitchers in Section 4, if not the entire L-L League.
Peyton’s fastball was clocked at 91 mph last year and he has worked on his strength over the winter to increase his pitch speed to the mid 90s.
