Milwaukee Brewers

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Jordan Zimmermann threw 25,335 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2009 and 2021, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2021, they relied primarily on their Slider (85mph) and Sinker (89mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (89mph), Curve (79mph) and Change using a Circle Change grip (85mph).


In 2021, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has less than expected depth. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has below average velo, has less armside run than typical and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2021) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has below average velo, has some natural sinking action and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 13 of them in 2021) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their change using a circle change grip (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2021) dives down out of the zone, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
