Joel Kuhnel has thrown 3,277 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2019 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Sinker (94mph), Cutter (88mph) and Fourseam Fastball (94mph), also mixing in a Splitter (91mph). He also rarely throws a Slider (80mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action. Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has slightly above average velo. Their splitter is thrown extremely hard, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' splitters, has some natural sink to it and has slight armside fade. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2025) comes in below hitting speed, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement.
