Ryan Fernandez has thrown 2,039 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2023 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph) and Slider (86mph), also mixing in a Cutter (91mph). He also rarely throws a Change (88mph).
In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has well above average velo and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider has exceptional depth and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2025) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has well above average velo and has some natural sink. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups.
