Pittsburgh Pirates

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Bailey Falter has thrown 6,832 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Curve (78mph) and Sinker (92mph). He also rarely throws a Change (87mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow and has essentially average velo. Their slider is much harder than usual and has less than expected depth. Their curve generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has little depth and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their sinker has surprisingly little armside run, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2024) is thrown extremely hard, has surprising cut action, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
