Philadelphia Phillies
Nolan Hoffman has thrown 2,700 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2023 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph), Curve (78mph) and Cutter (88mph), also mixing in a Sinker (94mph) and Change (87mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, has an obvious tail, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their curve generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, has sweeping glove-side movement and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their cutter is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has little cutting action and has some natural sink. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 13 of them in 2026) has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone and is slightly firmer than usual.
