Los Angeles Angels
Jared Southard has thrown 960 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2026, all of them occuring in Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Slider (86mph) and Sinker (96mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (95mph). He also rarely throws a Curve (84mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker is blazing fast, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical and has slightly above average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has primarily 12-6 movement.
