93.8 average on the fastball, I have personally seen it get up to 96 MPH before, but it usually sits at 93 or 94.  Movement is at about 5 inches horizontal, 10 inches vertical, meaning it doesn't have much side to side action but has a little extra drop compared to league average fastballs.

In short, speed with good action. Nice, he even fits the incredibly high standards for an ace.

The Marlins announcers made some nice comments about the live movement on his fastball.
