Fastball Missing

IMO I see a lot of pitchers without a Fastball. I guess I thought all or most pitchers have a Fastball. Just my universe?

Are you not counting sinkers and cutters? I just went through my entire league's pitchers in the majors (12 teams) and only 1 player didn't have a fastball, but he did have a knuckleball.

The only thing I'd nitpick on was I saw maybe a few too many players who only had a cutter as their fastball and I don't think that happens very often. I could be wrong, but I have it in my head that pitchers who have a cutter normally also have a 4 or 2-seamer as well.
