Chicago White Sox
Sean Newcomb has thrown 10,980 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Sinker (83mph), Slider (71mph) and Fourseam Fastball (87mph), also mixing in a Cutter (89mph) and Change (86mph). He also rarely throws a Curve (62mph).
In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has slightly above average velo. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters and has well above average velo. Their change is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone, is much firmer than usual and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 14 of them in 2026) has an exceptional bite, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has sweeping glove-side movement, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual.
