Why was Randy Johnson ineffective in New York?

high leg kick? getting your wrist to snap at the end, pushing off the mound with your back leg. all of those are small, but will slowly increase the speed of your fastball. also, doing excercises with weights and medicine balls every other day helped me. i'm 13 and in summer i was throwing 75 and now i'm up close to 80 because i worked out all winter.

you should try longer strides when your pitching..towl drills and long tossing dont work they can decrease your velocity..

What is yor opinion about Joe Mauer?

Lots of squats and leg work.

Also, get one of those handheld tools for working your grip. It'll strengthen your forearms to give you more snap on the ball.
