Chuck James

Toronto Blue Jays

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Chuck James threw 2,197 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 Fourseam Fastball (88mph) and Change (78mph), also mixing in a Slider (78mph).


In 2011, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slightly less natural movement than typical and has some added backspin. Their change has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has below average velo. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2011) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has below average velo and has less than expected depth.
