Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Hayden Wesneski has thrown 2,574 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Slider (82mph) and Fourseam Fastball (94mph), also mixing in a Sinker (92mph), Cutter (87mph) and Change (88mph).


In 2024, 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 fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has essentially average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly below average velo and has strong cutting action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it.
