Alex Wilson

Detroit Tigers

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Alex Wilson threw 5,041 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2013 and 2019, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2019, they relied primarily on their Cutter (86mph) and Sinker (92mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (86mph). He also rarely threw a Change (89mph).


In 2019, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter has heavy sink, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has sweeping cut action, has below average velo and generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their sinker has surprisingly little armside run, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their slider is a prototypical pitch with few remarkable qualities. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2019) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
