Tampa Bay Rays
Kevin Kelly has thrown 3,974 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 Sinker (91mph) and Change (86mph), also mixing in a Slider (79mph) and Fourseam Fastball (93mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (89mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker has heavy sinking action, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slight armside run. 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 is slightly firmer than usual. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo and has slight armside run. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2026) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has little cutting action and has some natural sink.
