I'm sure its been discussed before... so I apologize if it has.
Do pitchers still throw fastballs in college? Any idea how often?
I realize it depends on the pitcher too, but in general I'd imagine maybe a handful per game, located just off the plate or when its 3-0 and you'd rather not walk someone and aren't afraid of a HR. But I'd think they don't really throw them that often.
I know in A level TB after 12u, our pitchers only throw a handful of fastballs per game or even weekend if they do at all.
