Cooper Criswell has thrown 4,787 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Change (85mph), Sinker (89mph) and Cutter (87mph), also mixing in a Slider (77mph). He also rarely throws a Fourseam Fastball (89mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, has below average velo and has slight armside run. Their cutter has little cutting action, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sink. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2025) comes in below hitting speed, has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slight armside run.
