Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Jacob Turner threw 6,018 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2011 and 2018, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2018, they relied primarily on their Sinker (94mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph). He also rarely threw a Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Change (91mph).


In 2018, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker has well above average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has less than expected depth. Their curve has little depth, is slightly harder than usual, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2018) has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2018) 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, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it.
