Lance Cormier

Tampa Bay Rays

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Lance Cormier threw 4,268 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2011, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2011, they relied primarily on their Cutter (87mph) and Curve (77mph), also mixing in a Sinker (89mph) and Fourseam Fastball (89mph). He also rarely threw a Change (82mph).


In 2011, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, has extreme cut action and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their curve has a sharp downward bite and has slight glove-side movement. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has below average velo and has less armside run than typical. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 13 of them in 2011) generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
