I have powerful palms, i can throw a ball really hard. Like 40-50 mph fastball. Think I could make it?

there is a pitch called the palmball. i suggest you perfect this pitch.
you better get that fastball up to at least 80 though or no one will care how powerful your palms are.

I am not going to sit here and tell you what you can and cannot do. is it likely? probably not. one out of every ten dominate high school pitchers ever make it, so that is a stat going against you. but guess what? overcoming adversity is the mark of a great athlete. maybe one day. keep throwing hard and good things might happen.

I would say no. Even if a person with no fingers could throw a fastball 95mph it takes more than that, and there would be no way to throw a breaking pitch.

wasn't there also a legendary pitcher named Mordecai "Three Finger" Brown? I know he had a few fingers but I am just mentioning someone else who became a great pitcher in spite of such adverse conditions. Good luck to you.

Yes, but Abbot threw with a normal hand. He pitched almost all of his career in the '90s, not the '80s, and was not missing most of his arm.
No fingers, no pitch.

I doubt it. I'm not trying to crush your dreams but MLB pitchers can throw 85+ Mp/h.

You're exactly what major league baseball is looking for. I say go for it.

Yes.
Back in the 80's the Yanks had Abbot and he was missing most of his arm, don't give up your dream if that's what you wanna do. I wish you all the luck in the world and hope one day you make it.
