Right now the guy who's throwing the hardest, and isn't a reliever is Justin Verlander. His rookie season he often hit 100 to 102 MPH in games(was clocked at 102 in his no hitter.) Zumaya also often hit 101-103... he led the leagues in pitches at or over 100 mph that season as reliever. I've seen Harden, Brian Wilson, Kerry Wood, Brad Lidge, Burnett, Papelbon and Beckett all hit it before. Oswalt had a pitch clocked at 100 on a foul tip his rookie season but haven't seen him throw harder than 99 since then.
Most people don't know much about this, and just make up crap. Obviously guys like Nolan, Clemens and Johnson hit 100(Nolan did so more than any pitcher probably.)
But the fastest I've seen a guy throw is Billy Wagner. One game he closed in like 2003, he threw like 13 pitches, 9 were 100 or over. Every other pitch he threw was a mediocre fastball clocked at 99.
