Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Alex Cobb has thrown 21,929 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2011 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Sinker (91mph) and Splitter (86mph), also mixing in a Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (80mph). He also rarely throws a Fourseam Fastball (92mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has heavy sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slight armside run. Their splitter generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' splitters, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' splitters, has some natural sink to it, is slightly firmer than usual and has slight armside fade. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip has an exceptional bite, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2025) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo.
