Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Carlos Zambrano threw 14,260 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2012, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2012, they relied primarily on their Sinker (91mph) and Splitter (84mph), also mixing in a Cutter (90mph), Slider (81mph) and Fourseam Fastball (92mph). He also rarely threw a Curve (72mph) and Change (86mph).


In 2012, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker has heavy sinking action and has slight armside run. Their splitter has dives down out of the zone and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' splitters. Their cutter has surprisingly little cutting action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has below average velo and has less than expected depth. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their curve comes in below hitting speed, has sweeping glove-side movement, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has little depth. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2012) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight cut action and is slightly firmer than usual.
