Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Blake Snell has thrown 18,724 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2016 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph) and Change (85mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph) and Slider (88mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is blazing fast and has much less armside movement than typical. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and is much firmer than usual. Their curve has sweeping glove-side movement, is much harder than usual and has a sharp downward bite. Their slider is thrown extremely hard, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has less than expected depth.
