Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Michael Arias has thrown 1,011 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2024 and 2026, including pitches thrown in Spring Training and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph) and Slider (82mph), also mixing in a Change (87mph).


In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, has an obvious tail and has well above average velo. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2026) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut, has below average velo and has less than expected depth. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2026) has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone, is much firmer than usual and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
