Jonathan Broxton

St. Louis Cardinals

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Jonathan Broxton threw 9,618 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2017, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2017, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Slider (88mph), also mixing in a Sinker (94mph). He also rarely threw a Splitter (88mph).


In 2017, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2017) has surprising cut action, is much firmer than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' splitters and has some natural sink to it.
