I’d 89 mph from the SS to first “elite elite”? I mean it was really awesome but no idea what normal throwing arm speed is

Tatis averages 91.1mph and Baez 88.3mph, topping around 94. Oneil Cruz threw one almost 98. So not really elite but strong.

At some point early in its flight, it may have been faster, but since it's further than the distance from the mound to home, it sure seems pretty fast by the eyeball test. I think it's the perspective.
