Chris Withrow

Kansas City Royals

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Chris Withrow threw 1,745 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2010 and 2016, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2016, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Slider (88mph), also mixing in a Curve (79mph). He also rarely threw a Cutter (87mph).


In 2016, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is much harder than usual. Their curve is a prototypical pitch with few remarkable qualities. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2016) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action.
