Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Ryan Pressly has thrown 10,112 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2013 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Slider (90mph), Curve (82mph) and Fourseam Fastball (94mph), also mixing in a Change (89mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (94mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is thrown extremely hard and is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve has sweeping glove-side movement, is much harder than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite. Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their change is thrown extremely hard, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical and has slightly above average velo.
