Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Chris Rusin threw 7,451 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2012 and 2020, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2020, they relied primarily on their Cutter (84mph) and Sinker (87mph), also mixing in a Change (82mph), Slider (80mph) and Fourseam Fastball (88mph).


In 2020, compared to other LHP:
Their cutter has heavy sink, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly below average velo and has strong cutting action. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has below average velo and has less armside run than typical. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2020) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2020) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2020) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has below average velo and has some natural sinking action.
