Boston Red Sox

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Justin Wilson has thrown 9,247 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2012 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph), Cutter (92mph) and Slider (88mph). He also rarely throws a Change (87mph) and Curve (86mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is blazing fast, has less armside movement than typical and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' cutters, has good "rise" and has strong cutting action. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and has some two-plane movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2024) 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 some natural sink to it. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2024) is thrown extremely hard, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves, has little depth and has primarily 12-6 movement.
