Chicago Cubs
Ethan Roberts has thrown 1,836 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 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 Slider (84mph) and Cutter (94mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (95mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2026) sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2026) is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, explodes on the hitter, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters and has surprisingly little cutting action. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2026) has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo and has slight armside run.
