David Hess

Tampa Bay Rays

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, David Hess threw 3,773 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2018 and 2022, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2022, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (91mph) and Slider (79mph), also mixing in a Change (83mph).


In 2022, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slightly below average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2022) comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2022) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
