Cade Cavalli has thrown 1,542 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Curve (85mph) and Fourseam Fastball (96mph), also mixing in a Sinker (96mph), Change (88mph) and Cutter (92mph). He also rarely throws a Slider (88mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their curve is thrown extremely hard, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has well above average velo. Their sinker generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast and has some natural sinking action. Their change is thrown extremely hard, has an obvious armside fade, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it. Their cutter is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is blazing fast and has some natural sink. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement.
