Dylan Axelrod

Miami Marlins

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Dylan Axelrod threw 4,186 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2011 and 2015, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2015, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (88mph), also mixing in a Slider (80mph), Change (81mph), Sinker (88mph) and Curve (73mph).


In 2015, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball comes in below hitting speed, has some natural sinking action and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, has primarily 12-6 movement and has some two-plane movement. Their change results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slightly below average velo. Their sinker is so slow that it is substantially gravitational, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2015) comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
