Non-MLB

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Josh A. Smith threw 3,325 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2020, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2020, they relied primarily on their Cutter (87mph), Curve (78mph) and Fourseam Fastball (91mph), also mixing in a Sinker (90mph). He also rarely threw a Change (83mph).


In 2020, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter has extreme cut action, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sink. Their curve has sweeping glove-side movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their fourseam fastball has less armside movement than typical and has slightly below average velo. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses 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 11 of them in 2020) generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade.
