Houston Astros
Bryan King has thrown 1,575 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2024 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (80mph), also mixing in a Sinker (91mph). He also rarely throws a Change (87mph), Cutter (86mph) and Curve (75mph).
In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider sweeps across the zone, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has below average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, 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 10 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight cut action. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2025) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, has sweeping cut action and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has sweeping glove-side movement, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite.
