I know the Twins throw more fastballs with those two guys [Nick Blackburn and Kevin Slowey] in particular being fastball guys, whereas Hughes and Joba both have plus breaking balls. |
Career MLB totals - % of fastballs thrown
Slowey - 66%
Hughes - 64.9%
Chamberlain - 64.8%%
Blackburn - 49.4%
Ah, gotta love writers with a broad audience who do zero research.

Blackburn also throws cut fastballs another 25 percent of the time, which means that yes, he does throw more fastballs.
