Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Gavin Williams has thrown 7,785 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 Fourseam Fastball (96mph) and Slider (87mph), also mixing in a Curve (83mph), Cutter (92mph) and Sinker (96mph). He also rarely throws a Change (92mph).


In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo and has slight armside run. Their slider generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their curve is much harder than usual and has a sharp downward bite. Their cutter is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has surprisingly little cutting action, has well above average velo and has some natural sink. Their sinker is blazing fast, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slight armside run and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it.
