Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

José Suarez has thrown 6,426 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2019 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph), Slider (81mph) and Change (82mph), also mixing in a Sinker (91mph) and Curve (79mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (88mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their slider sweeps across the zone. Their change dives down out of the zone. Their sinker generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2024) generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, is slightly harder than usual and has slight glove-side movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly above average velo and has strong cutting action.
