Kansas City Royals
Oscar Rayo has thrown 195 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 (89mph) and Change (82mph), also mixing in a Slider (79mph).
In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has slight armside run and has slightly below average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2026) dives down out of the zone and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2026) results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut, has below average velo and has some two-plane movement.
