Pitch velocity

Halfway through first season with fictional league. Is it my imagination or does a pitchers fastball lose something as he approaches endurance limit,acting as an early warning. It seems to happen that a starter whose fastball is rated at 90-93mph suddenly starts clocking 86-88just before his name turns red.

It's been a value even from an interpretative perspective. I attended a minor league ball game last night and was noting the apparent speed of the ball with each pitcher the home team used. I was lucky enough to predict accurately a pitching change or too, not that the pitchers had done badly just marginal i.e. 5 innings or so, avg 1-2 hits and 1-2 walks per inning, maybe 1K every other, and it was evident that the last few pitches were not intended to be changeups. The arm was just getting tired.

The last pitcher that came out was throwing sidearm fireballs. You could just tell the velocity was there that had been missing from the previous two pitchers. I was nodding my head thinking, "Now there's some velocity, 'bout time," when about two batters later I watched a pitch taken about 420 feet and over the fence.

The pitcher was fresh, his velocity was way up there. But this time I thought, "Huh, must have been lacking in the Movement department." Heh. Old OOTP creeping into the thoughts anytime there's baseball.
