Maybe Matt Harrington still throws hard and only the radar guns got slower....

Joe Posnanski of the Kansas City Star catches us up on the sad story of Matt Harrington, pitcher for the Fort Worth Cats.

As suggested by reader grandcosmo.

Related topic, different pitcher: Fred Claire's "Baseball Perspectives" on the Dodgers MLB site today has him reminiscing about Rudy Seanez:
"I once traded for Seanez early in his career based on the reports of his blazing fastball. His velocity is 90-plus, but there is a tendency for his fastball to be straight."
