Randy Messenger

Seattle Mariners

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Randy Messenger threw 723 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2009, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2009, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Curve (78mph) and Change (86mph).


In 2009, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders and has much less depth than expected. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2009) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves and has little depth. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2009) results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual.
