Philadelphia Phillies

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

José Ruiz has thrown 4,847 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (97mph), Curve (86mph) and Sinker (96mph), also mixing in a Change (90mph). He also rarely throws a Slider (89mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is blazing fast and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, has primarily 12-6 movement, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has little depth. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast and generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their change is thrown extremely hard, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2024) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has less than expected depth and has primarily 12-6 movement.
