Toronto Blue Jays

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, LaTroy Hawkins threw 6,625 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2015, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2015, they relied primarily on their Sinker (94mph), also mixing in a Slider (87mph) and Change (84mph). He also rarely threw a Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Curve (78mph).


In 2015, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker has less armside run than typical and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual, has less than expected depth and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their change is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo, has slight armside run and has some added backspin. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2015) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has primarily 12-6 movement.
