I am hoping the minimum/maximum velocity for every pitch is increased, there are a handful of pitchers this year who throw curveballs in the low 60's, and there are some pitchers in the minors (that were in the futures game) whose running fastballs/2-seamers average 98+ MPH.

Personally I think the best option would be to allow us to set the velocity range ourselves and have it completely independent from the 0-99 ratings. That way, we can have Verlander sit around 94 MPH like he does this year, with the ability to have him still hit 100 MPH. So his range would be 92-100 with an average velocity of 94. Same thing would apply to Chad Billingsley's curveball, Wei-Yin Chen's curve, etc.
