Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Max Lazar has thrown 835 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system in 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Slow Curve (80mph), also mixing in a Slider (87mph). He also rarely throws a Curve (84mph).


In 2024, 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, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slow curve is a real yakker that's separated from their other curveball due to its big drop and slow speed. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and is much harder than usual. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has primarily 12-6 movement, has little depth and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
