Oakland Athletics

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Tyler Sturdevant threw 255 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system in 2016, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2016, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (88mph), also mixing in a Curve (80mph) and Change (86mph).


In 2016, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider is thrown extremely hard, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, has much less depth than expected and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their curve has primarily 12-6 movement and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2016) generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual.
