Triston McKenzie has thrown 9,320 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, Spring Training and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph), also mixing in a Curve (82mph), Slider (89mph) and Sinker (95mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has well above average velo, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has some added backspin. Their curve generates an extremely high number of swings & misses 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 slider is thrown extremely hard, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has less than expected depth. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 10 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has well above average velo and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker.
