Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Joey Lucchesi has thrown 8,128 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2018 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Sinker (89mph) and Change (76mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (90mph). He also rarely throws a Splitter (80mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their sinker has less armside run than typical and has some natural sinking action. Their change comes in below hitting speed, has surprising cut action and dives down out of the zone. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly below average velo. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2024) comes in below hitting speed, has surprising cut action and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters.
