100 MPH people used to be rare. Just read an article that says there are close to 70 guys that hit 100 or more in the MLB system somewhere...
I know nothing about pitching.....But I found that interesting...

I was in awe of Mark Wohlers, the first guy to consistently hit 100mph (3-5 times an inning). The whole stadium cheered when Armando Benitez hit 100 that one and only time.
