Alex Cobb

San Francisco Giants

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2023, Alex Cobb threw 18,754 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2011 and 2022, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2022, they relied primarily on their Sinker (95mph) and Splitter (89mph), also mixing in a Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (84mph). He also rarely threw a Fourseam Fastball (95mph).


In 2022, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker has well above average velo and has slight armside run. Their splitter is thrown extremely hard, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' splitters, has some natural sink to it and has slight armside fade. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip is thrown extremely hard, has a sharp downward bite, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2022) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo.
