Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Dylan Cease has thrown 16,303 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 (89mph) and Fourseam Fastball (97mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph) and Splitter (79mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (96mph) and Cutter (96mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is thrown extremely hard and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their fourseam fastball is blazing fast and has less armside movement than typical. Their curve has an exceptional bite, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their splitter comes in below hitting speed, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters and has movement that suggests an extreme amount of backspin. Their sinker generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast, has surprisingly little armside run and generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2025) is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has good "rise".
