Ryan Tepera

St. Louis Cardinals

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Ryan Tepera threw 6,146 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2023, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2023, they relied primarily on their Cutter (85mph) and Fourseam Fastball (92mph), also mixing in a Sinker (93mph) and Slider (80mph). He also rarely threw a Splitter (87mph).


In 2023, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action. Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slight armside run. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, sweeps across the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2023) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' splitters, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' splitters, is slightly firmer than usual and has slight armside fade.
