Carter Capps

San Diego Padres

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Carter Capps threw 2,603 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2012 and 2017, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2017, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Slider (80mph). He also rarely threw a Change (85mph).


In 2017, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has essentially average velo and has slight armside run. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2017) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
