Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

José Urquidy has thrown 7,702 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2019 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Change (85mph), also mixing in a Curve (78mph), Slider (79mph) and Sinker (92mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slight armside run. Their change has slight armside fade. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2024) comes in below hitting speed, sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 10 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
