Here are some some interactive graphs to go with Steve's post previewing Derek Holland. If you haven't yet read that, do so now. For reference, Holland's fastball averages 94.1 mph, his changeup averages 84.7 mph, his slider averages 82.7 mph, and his curve averages 75.8 mph. Also, take the slider/changeup classifications with a grain of salt. Seems pretty clear that the MLB classification system is confusing the two.
