Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Luis Contreras has thrown 2,145 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (92mph), also mixing in a Cutter (86mph), Change (84mph) and Slider (79mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (92mph).


In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, has extreme cut action, has below average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their change results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it. Their slider comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker.
