Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Zac Gallen has thrown 12,252 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 and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Curve (80mph), also mixing in a Slider (85mph) and Change (86mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (89mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has less armside movement than typical and has essentially average velo. Their curve generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their slider generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change is slightly firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2024) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action.
