Shane McClanahan

Tampa Bay Rays

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2026, Shane McClanahan threw 6,750 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2025, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Change (84mph), also mixing in a Slider (88mph) and Curve (81mph).


In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their change generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders and has less than expected depth. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite.
