Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Vince Velasquez has thrown 15,410 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Slider (84mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph), Sinker (92mph) and Change (88mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their curve has primarily 12-6 movement, is slightly harder than usual and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their sinker has less armside run than typical and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their change is much firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it.
