Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Caleb Cotham threw 631 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2016, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2016, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Slider (87mph), also mixing in a Curve (79mph). He also rarely threw a Sinker (95mph).


In 2016, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and is much harder than usual. Their curve generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has slight glove-side movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2016) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo and has less armside run than typical.
