Your standard, tried and true pitching machine! Mar 25, 2012
By Mike Cross This thing, and others (same brand/model) just like it, are our little league work horses for all machine pitch levels. Even kid pitch levels use these for practices.
With consistent ball type/weight/wetness, you will get much more consistent pitches. It's when you use different ball types/weights/wetness, that you will get pitches that don't stay as tight as you'd like them to. This should not be a surprise, but some coaches are caught off guard...
Be sure to always check tire pressure on these - that's a key maintenance point. Every so often sanding the tire (while it's running, just use some light grit sandpaper to smooth out any rough spots) also helps improve consistency.
With very basic maintenance, you should literally get years of use out of this machine! A great ROI considering only $1k, no tax, and free shipping with Amazon Prime.

What is the difference? May 26, 2010
By Lie2me JUGS MVP appears similar to the JUGS Jr. pitching machine. What is the difference?
According to Jugs's web site-.
JR.(tm) PITCHING MACHINE 5-year guarantee. Recommended age: 8-15. Speed Range: 15-60 mph. Throws Fastballs, Slowpitch or Fastpitch.
MVP® BASEBALL PITCHING MACHINE 5-year guarantee. Recommended age: 8-12. Speed Range: 15-52 mph. Digital Readout
They both have digital readouts presently. The older Jugs Jr. may not. The Jugs Jr. is available as a combo machine for both baseball and softball having different ball feeders and legs for each.
The main different for baseball use only that I see in the specs is the Jugs. Jr. pitches a little faster at its top speed and extends the range of age usefulness.
I presently do not own this machine so I only gave it a middle rating.
