Kansas City Royals

Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Daniel Lynch IV has thrown 8,018 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2021 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, Spring Training and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (93mph), Slider (87mph) and Change (85mph), also mixing in a Sinker (94mph) and Curve (81mph). He also rarely throws a Cutter (89mph).


In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and is much firmer than usual. Their sinker has well above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their curve is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves, is much harder than usual, has little depth and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has well above average velo and has little cutting action.
