Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Griffin Canning has thrown 9,630 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2019 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Slider (88mph), Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Change (89mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (90mph), Curve (82mph) and Sinker (93mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth, is much harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their change is thrown extremely hard, dives down out of the zone, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade. Their cutter has some natural sink. Their curve is much harder than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has slight glove-side movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2025) results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
