Matt Herges

Kansas City Royals

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Matt Herges threw 2,188 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2010, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2010, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (87mph) and Change (78mph), also mixing in a Curve (71mph).


In 2010, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball comes in below hitting speed, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has slight armside run. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2010) comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2010) has an exceptional bite, comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
