Jake Cousins

Milwaukee Brewers

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2023, Jake Cousins threw 891 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2022, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2022, they relied primarily on their Slider (83mph) and Sinker (95mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (96mph). He also rarely threw a Change (88mph).


In 2022, compared to other RHP:
Their slider sweeps across the zone, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, is blazing fast and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, has an obvious tail, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has well above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2022) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone, is much firmer than usual and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
