Cade Povich has thrown 5,344 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 Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Curve (79mph), also mixing in a Slider (83mph), Change (84mph) and Sinker (92mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (88mph).
In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their curve has an exceptional bite, is slightly harder than usual, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has slight glove-side movement. Their slider sweeps across the zone, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, dives down out of the zone, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual. Their sinker results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2025) results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly above average velo and has strong cutting action.
