Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, José A. Váldez threw 991 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2018, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2018, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Change (89mph) and Sinker (95mph).


In 2018, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2018) is thrown extremely hard, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2018) 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 some natural sinking action.
