He'll throw over the top, pretty hard at times, and will change speeds. More at the link.

Quick report on Carlos Torres...
Very beatable.

Well, he certainly has a slew of pitches to choose from.
I think it’ll all depend on how patient the Cubs are.

Post game report
He won.
And the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at Fight Club, you have to fight.
I bet he's surprised.
I know I’m a bit shocked that Torres shutout the Cubs. A 91mph, who always pitches from the stretch. I thought the Cubs would make him throw strikes yet so many Cubbies hacked at 1st pitches.

But at strikes
First pitch swings were at 9 strikes and 2 balls
It was 1-0 were things went poorly – Torres never fell behind 2-0. They swung at 6 1-0 pitches, only two were strikes. They also took four 1-0 pitches and all were strikes (!)
