Ryder Ryan

Pittsburgh Pirates

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Ryder Ryan has thrown 3,168 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Slider (85mph), Sinker (93mph) and Fourseam Fastball (93mph), also mixing in a Change (89mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (88mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their slider generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker has an obvious tail, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, has essentially average velo and has slight armside run. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and has slight armside fade. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2025) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters.
