Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Josh Outman threw 4,741 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2008 and 2014, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2014, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (91mph) and Slider (83mph), also mixing in a Change (80mph). He also rarely threw a Sinker (88mph) and Curve (78mph).


In 2014, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has less than expected depth. Their change is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight cut action and has slightly below average velo. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2014) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical and has slightly below average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2014) has a sharp downward bite and has slight glove-side movement.
