Addison Reed

Minnesota Twins

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Addison Reed threw 7,588 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2011 and 2018, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2018, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (91mph) and Slider (84mph). He also rarely threw a Sinker (90mph) and Change (91mph).


In 2018, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly below average velo. Their slider is a prototypical pitch with few remarkable qualities. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2018) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly below average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2018) is thrown extremely hard, 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 has a lot of backspin.
