Jack Flaherty has thrown 12,917 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Curve (78mph). He also rarely throws a Change (86mph), Sinker (90mph) and Cutter (89mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their curve generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has slight glove-side movement. Their change generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2024) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2024) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, has sweeping cut action and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters.
