Kyle Gibson has thrown 28,725 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2013 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Sinker using a Two-seam Fastball grip (91mph) and Cutter (90mph), also mixing in a Slider (81mph), Fourseam Fastball (92mph), Change (85mph) and Curve (79mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker using a two-seam fastball grip is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical and has some natural sinking action. Their cutter generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their slider sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has below average velo and has some two-plane movement. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has slightly below average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 14 of them in 2024) is slightly firmer than usual, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2024) generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
