Alan Embree

Chicago White Sox

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Alan Embree threw 2,101 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2009, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2009, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Slider (80mph). He also rarely threw a Change (83mph).


In 2009, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has some natural sinking action, has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider has some two-plane movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2009) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
