Colorado Rockies

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Germán Márquez threw 16,698 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2016 and 2023, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2023, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph), Slider (89mph) and Sinker (95mph), also mixing in a Curve (87mph). He also rarely threw a Change (87mph).


In 2023, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider is thrown extremely hard, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, has less than expected depth, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has well above average velo. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has primarily 12-6 movement and has little depth. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2023) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
