Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Joe Wieland threw 1,878 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2012 and 2023, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2023, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (78mph), also mixing in a Change using a Circle Change grip (85mph).


In 2023, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has less armside movement than typical and has essentially average velo. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip has an exceptional bite, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their change using a circle change grip generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight cut action and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
