Blake Wood

Los Angeles Angels

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Blake Wood threw 5,100 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2010 and 2018, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2018, they relied primarily on their Slider (89mph) and Fourseam Fastball (96mph), also mixing in a Sinker (96mph) and Splitter (86mph).


In 2018, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical and has well above average velo. Their sinker is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast, has less armside run than typical and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2018) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters and has some natural sink to it.
