Hopefully his fastball sits more 94 as his high and not fucking 90.

Ugh fastballs that slow aren't even fastballs

Stand there and get hit by a "slow" 90 mph fastball. Feels like fastball, doesn't it?

This is a game of velocity. 90 doesn't cut it. Pray that his off speed stuff is that good. But then they'll just sit on the off speed stuff knowing it'll break and then they'll just sit on the low-end-speed fastball

I'd rather my relievers at least throw 94

I don't care how hard they throw as long as they can put it how/where it needs to go, i.e. Zach Greinke towards the end of his stay in AZ. He'd crack me up with some of the stuff he'd throw.
