Juan Morillo has the fasted fb in the league from RPs. For a guy with 30 or more innings its Matt Lindstrom.

Jimenez and Ervin Santana throw in the upper 90s so effortlessly it's ridiculous.

Can't argue with Jimenez, though.

Am I just stuck in the past, or does no one here know about Billy Wagner's gun? From Wiki:

Then, he enjoyed his best season in 2003, when he reached career-highs in saves (44), innings pitched (86.0) and games (78), and got 105 strikeouts. In that year, he also cemented his status as the hardest-throwing man in baseball by leading the major leagues with 159 pitches at 100 mph or above. Second on the list was starter Bartolo Col?n with 12.

in 2005 wagner averaged 96.9 on his fb, that number has moved down a bit over each of the last few years. This year he is at 94.5.
