Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Cade Horton has thrown 2,665 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2025, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Cutter (96mph) and Slider (84mph), also mixing in a Change (88mph) and Sinker (95mph). He also rarely throws a Fourseam Fastball (96mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, has good "rise", has little cutting action and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their slider sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups and is much firmer than usual. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has well above average velo and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has well above average velo.
