San Diego Padres
Yuki Matsui has thrown 2,475 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2023 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph), Splitter (84mph) and Cutter (86mph). He also rarely throws a Slider (80mph) and Sinker (91mph).
In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has much less armside movement than typical, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their splitter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters and has some natural sink to it. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, has sweeping cut action and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has surprisingly little armside run.
