I remember a very good baseball pitching instructor telling me that he (with proper training and hard work) could get any kid to throw a ball 80 miles per hour by the time he was a senior in high school, after that it’s all genetics and no amount of training will significantly increase velocity.

Yes, and he forgot to address the “accuracy” component.

What sets those with a natural born talent apart from the rest, is the ability to throw the ball 90 miles per hour and hit an imaginary target 60 feet, 6 inches away. And also make the ball change course while it is en route.
