Arizona Diamondbacks
Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Mike Leake threw 27,396 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2010 and 2019, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2019, they relied primarily on their Cutter (87mph), Sinker (88mph) and Change (84mph), also mixing in a Slider (80mph) and Fourseam Fastball (89mph). He also rarely threw a Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (79mph).
In 2019, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter has heavy sink, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has slightly below average velo. Their sinker is so slow that it is substantially gravitational, has heavy sinking action, has surprisingly little armside run and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball comes in below hitting speed, has heavy sinking action and generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip has little depth and has slight glove-side movement.
