Heath Fillmyer

San Diego Padres

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Heath Fillmyer threw 1,975 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 (95mph) and Slider (84mph), also mixing in a Curve (79mph). He also rarely threw a Change (87mph).


In 2022, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has primarily 12-6 movement, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their curve results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2022) generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
