Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Jae Kuk Ryu threw 104 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2007 and 2008, all of them occuring in the MLB Regular Season.

In 2008, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2008) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2008) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' splitters and has below average velo. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2008) 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 and has slightly below average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2008) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has slightly below average velo.
