Colorado Rockies

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Rafael Betancourt threw 6,654 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2015, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2015, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (91mph), also mixing in a Slider (79mph) and Splitter (85mph).


In 2015, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly below average velo. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, has exceptional depth and generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their splitter has movement that suggests a lot of backspin.
