He threw hard in college. He could still throw hard until a few years ago. Not mid 90s, but upper 80s. He's not young anymore.

No tmitch, I have seen Coleman pitch a few years at LSU...

You don't need a scouting report if you take off P&G glasses and look at the player not the jersey.

My point is that Byrd hasn't had a "dominant out pitch" in ten years IMO. Throwing 92 in the majors isn't an out pitch. His change of speeds has been his biggest weapon along with staying in the zone.

Coleman is in the zone, has a tough delivery to stay with, has shown the improvement each year and versatility that makes him a nice commodity, and does have a great slider set up by a good fastball. He's not a guy that has Renaudo type fastball velocity but he can get it up there when need be.
