Philadelphia Phillies
Josh Walker has thrown 2,487 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2022 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 Slider (83mph) and Fourseam Fastball (93mph), also mixing in a Sinker (93mph). He also rarely throws a Change (86mph) and Splitter (80mph).
In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their slider has short glove-side cut and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has slightly above average velo. Their sinker has less armside run than typical, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2025) generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2025) comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' splitters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters and has movement that suggests a lot of backspin.
