Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Darren McCaughan has thrown 7,063 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 Sinker (90mph) and Slider (82mph), also mixing in a Fourseam Fastball (90mph) and Change (82mph). He also rarely throws a Curve (81mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their sinker results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slight armside run, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their slider sweeps across the zone and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has some natural sinking action. Their change dives down out of the zone, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has slightly below average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has little depth, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement.
