Hardest throwing lefties

[sontzu]

Which left handed pitchers throw high 90's?

Aroldis chapman and Matt Thornton are 2 that come to mind.

I'm looking for a starting lhp that throws gas.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Could try James Paxton.

I have. I like him but he tops out 94-95. Wondering if there is a lefty that goes 98-99.

Are you using the OSFM roster?

Re: Hardest throwing lefties

I am. A little plug for all those that helped on that roster set. Amazing work guys. Thanks

I think that David Price tops out at 97. Other than that though power left handed starters are few and far between. Most of them are relievers. If any other one come to mind I will post.

Not sure about in the game but Danny Duffy is a hard throwing lefty

Diekman on the Phillies can get it up there. Don't know if they upped his velocity though. After Chapman he might be the hardest throwing lefty in the game (the real one).

EDIT: just realized you said starter. Chris Sale? Is that too obvious?

Jake McGee is another hard throwing lefty reliever.

Not to be "that guy" but Doolittle isn't a 98-99 MPH lefty. His Sinker and 4SFB max out around 95, MAYBE 96.
