Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Montana DuRapau threw 336 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system in 2019, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2019, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph). He also rarely threw a Change (85mph).


In 2019, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their curve is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2019) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight cut action, has a lot of backspin and is slightly firmer than usual.
