Detroit Tigers
Drew Anderson has thrown 1,445 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2017 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph), Change (90mph) and Curve (81mph), also mixing in a Cutter (89mph). He also rarely throws a Slider (87mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their change is thrown extremely hard, dives down out of the zone, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve has an exceptional bite, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 10 of them in 2026) has heavy sink, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual and has some two-plane movement.
