Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Bowden Francis has thrown 2,326 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 Fourseam Fastball (93mph) and Curve (74mph), also mixing in a Splitter (84mph) and Slider (84mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their curve has sweeping glove-side movement, has below average velo, has a sharp downward bite and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their splitter is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' splitters, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' splitters and has some natural sink to it. Their slider results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders.
