San Diego Padres
Nick Pivetta has thrown 18,643 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Curve (79mph), also mixing in a Slider (82mph) and Cutter (86mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (93mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has good "rising" action and has essentially average velo. Their curve has an exceptional bite, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their slider sweeps across the zone, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2025) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, has sweeping cut action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has slightly below average velo. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has virtually no sinking action reminiscent of a true sinker.
