Little League Pitching Mechanic's faults not only reduce velocity but increase the risk of arm injuries. This pitching mechanics fault, early trunk rotation is common in pitchers at all levels. It significantly reduces velocity because the trunk comes into play too early and thus the arm has less distance to travel to produce force. This means the throwing arm just try to do more work thus more stress to the arm.

Pitching Mechanics - How Efficient Mechanics Produces Higher Pitching Velocity
Pitchers who have more efficient pitching mechanics like Pedro Martinez in this video are able to produce more pitching velocity and momentum and thus more force which can translate into more arm speed. Irrelevant actions such as used by Tim Lincecum in this video, such as the big trunk and hip turn and sweeping lead leg do not help a pitcher produce more force. By improving pitching mechanics so that there is as little turning or rotation until landing will help improve pitching velocity, provide better control and with less stress to the arm.
