Craig Kimbrel has thrown 15,253 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2010 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, the MLB Postseason and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph), also mixing in a Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (83mph) and Slider (84mph). He also rarely throws a Change (88mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slight armside run. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip is thrown extremely hard and has slight glove-side movement. Their slider sweeps across the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their change dives down out of the zone, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade.
