Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Dan Giese threw 1,201 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 Curve (77mph) and Fourseam Fastball (88mph). He also rarely threw a Change (82mph).


In 2009, compared to other RHP:
Their curve has primarily 12-6 movement, has little depth and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their fourseam fastball comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has slight armside run. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2009) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
