Atlanta Braves

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Pierce Johnson has thrown 4,149 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Curve (86mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (96mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (93mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2024) is thrown extremely hard, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has little depth and has slight glove-side movement. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and is blazing fast. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2024) is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has good "rise" and has strong cutting action.
