Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Nate Pearson has thrown 3,518 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (98mph) and Slider (90mph), also mixing in a Curve (84mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (97mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider is thrown extremely hard. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 14 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite. 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, is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker.
