Fernando Cruz has thrown 3,082 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Splitter (81mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (94mph), Sinker (93mph) and Slider (83mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (89mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their splitter comes in below hitting speed, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, has slight cut action, has some natural sink to it and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' splitters. Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their sinker results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2025) has extreme cut action and generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters.
