Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, CC Sabathia threw 36,914 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2019, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2019, they relied primarily on their Cutter (88mph) and Slider (79mph), also mixing in a Sinker (89mph) and Change (83mph). He also rarely threw a Fourseam Fastball (90mph).


In 2019, compared to other LHP:
Their cutter has well above average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their slider sweeps across the zone, has below average velo and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker has less armside run than typical, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their change has surprising cut action and has some natural sink to it. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2019) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo.
