Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Daniel Lynch IV has thrown 8,149 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, Spring Training and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph), Change (86mph) and Slider (87mph), also mixing in a Sinker (94mph) and Curve (82mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (89mph).


In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and is much firmer than usual. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, has little depth, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has well above average velo and has little cutting action.
