Your pitcher is just fine... It's been a wonder in here many times if a faster pitcher leads to more homers... Just make sure that he not only throws fast but he has a lot of throw skill... with out throw skill he's just putting up meatballs at 100+ MPH...

Also, as to who is the correct pitcher on your team, it has to deal with how much skill loss he has too, not just what he can accomplish... Everyone can pitch fast, but someone may lose a bunch of skill in one day because he's not a good pitcher and another guy may lose almost nothing in a month and he IS your right pitcher... what do you call him, natural pitcher? I think that's it...

I have never seen one of my pitchers throw above 112-113. And from posts I have seen on here that is your max out range. Am I mistaken if so that explains why I cant get out of pl8.

Whoa! Seriously....I even thought the 119-120 post was a bit high. I've never had a player on the 25 teams+ that I've trained ever go over 116. They must be giving out steroid to your teams. Those are amazing numbers guys, ALMOST unbelievable.

each player maxes out differently. 109-111 is usually normal, but some do max out at about 108.

no you can not tell if you have the right pitcher just by how fast he throws. IMO.

On all my teams all my pitchers max out at 111-113mph, maybe my PC is slow or something, these guys must be getting 99999FPS or something to see readings that high.

I will tell you this.. your pitcher only has a speed differential of 4.

So as an example most my pitchers pitch between 107-111, I have a few that throw 108-112. They can't chuck a 120 or a 100 in there. Always within range of 4.

The harder the pitcher throws, the more HRs he gives up.

And in my case more runs and less SO's...
