Philadelphia Phillies
Andrew Walling has thrown 1,264 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Cutter (91mph) and Slider (85mph), also mixing in a Sinker (94mph) and Fourseam Fastball (95mph). He also rarely throws a Change (93mph).
In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, has heavy sink, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and is much harder than usual. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has well above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, is straight as an arrow, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has well above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it.
