Nick Pivetta has thrown 20,813 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Curve (79mph), also mixing in a Slider (82mph) and Cutter (90mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (93mph) and Splitter (87mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has some added backspin. Their curve has an exceptional bite, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their slider sweeps across the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their cutter has extreme cut action, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sink. Their sinker has surprisingly little armside run, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker and has slightly above average velo. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' splitters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters, has movement that suggests an extreme amount of backspin, is much firmer than usual and has slight armside fade.
