Bailey Falter

Pittsburgh Pirates

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Bailey Falter has thrown 5,004 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph), also mixing in a Slider (86mph), Sinker (92mph) and Curve (78mph). He also rarely throws a Change (87mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their slider is much harder than usual and has less than expected depth. Their sinker is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their curve generates fewer whiffs/swing 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 18 of them in 2024) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
