Right now, I'm looking at a pitcher with a 90-92 velo range, and I'm seeing fastballs in the 95, 96, 97 mph vicinity.
At first, I thought this might be related to the individual pitch rating somehow, but I don't really see a pattern. It also doesn't seem to apply to all pitchers, at least not in all situations.
I've uploaded an example that I just took while writing this post, of my pitcher, Juarez, throwing a 98 mph fastball. His range is supposed to be 90-92.
Is this a bug? Is there something I'm not getting? Does the velo on the pitch thrown even matter, or is it just a cosmetic thing?

Run a report on pitches and pitch velocity per player, team.
Anecodotal accounts will not get attention.
Oh wait you can't run a report
