Houston Astros
Bryan King has thrown 3,288 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2024 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 Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (81mph), also mixing in a Sinker (91mph). He also rarely throws a Change (87mph) and Curve (79mph).
In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, is straight as an arrow, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their slider sweeps across the zone, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has surprisingly little armside run. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 13 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves, is slightly harder than usual and has slight glove-side movement.
