Bud Norris

Philadelphia Phillies

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Bud Norris threw 21,042 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2009 and 2018, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2018, they relied primarily on their Cutter (90mph), Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Sinker (95mph), also mixing in a Slider (85mph). He also rarely threw a Change (89mph).


In 2018, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly above average velo and has strong cutting action. Their fourseam fastball has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their sinker generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo, has less armside run than typical, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their slider has exceptional depth and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2018) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
