New York Yankees
Kervin Castro has thrown 2,464 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Cutter (93mph), Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Sinker (94mph), also mixing in a Slider (84mph) and Curve (80mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has good "rise" and has strong cutting action. Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their sinker generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has well above average velo and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2026) sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2026) has a sharp downward bite, is slightly harder than usual, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
