Josh Lucas

Arizona Diamondbacks

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Josh Lucas threw 640 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2019, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2019, they relied primarily on their Slider (83mph), Sinker (90mph) and Fourseam Fastball (90mph). He also rarely threw a Change (86mph).


In 2019, compared to other RHP:
Their slider has exceptional depth, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has an obvious tail and has slightly below average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2019) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual.
