Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Patrick Murphy threw 2,302 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2023, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2023, they relied primarily on their Curve (83mph), Fourseam Fastball (97mph) and Sinker (97mph), also mixing in a Slider (90mph). He also rarely threw a Change (89mph).


In 2023, compared to other RHP:
Their curve is much harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has well above average velo. Their sinker is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their slider is thrown extremely hard, has less than expected depth, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change is thrown extremely hard, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it.
