Ricardo Estrada has thrown 315 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2025 and 2026, including pitches thrown in The World Baseball Classic, Spring Training and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (91mph) and Sinker (93mph), also mixing in a Change (87mph), Slider (88mph) and Curve (79mph).


In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run and has slightly above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 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, has a sharp downward bite, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement.
