Tampa Bay Rays
Brody Hopkins has thrown 290 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2023 and 2026, all of them occuring in Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (97mph) and Cutter (92mph), also mixing in a Curve (86mph). He also rarely throws a Change (90mph) and Slider (87mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and is blazing fast. Their cutter has heavy sink, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has well above average velo. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, has primarily 12-6 movement, has a sharp downward bite and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2026) sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and is much harder than usual.
