Fastest pitching team..

[sheetswannabe]

I was wondeirng if theres anyway to find out what team throws the fastest based on all of the pitchers fastballs on average.

 

Who would you think would be the fastest?

Guarantee you it's not Arizona.

[sbrylski]

I'd guess Detroit.

 

I know Fangraphs.com now has average pitch velocity broken down by pitch (FB, CU, SL, ect.) for each player...

[RedbirdRay]

Fangraphs now has pitch data at the bottom of it's player pages. If you scroll down to the bottom of Sheeter's page (the link), you will see a breakdown of how often he throws each pitch. The number in parenthesis is the average speed of said pitch. It might be tedious to compile the team data by looking up each player, but it's the only place I know of that has the data.

PS...fangraphs is like cool or something.

EDIT 2: sbrylski beat me 2 it.
