Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Fraser Ellard has thrown 1,175 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2023 and 2024, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Fall/Winter Ball. In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Slider (85mph), also mixing in a Cutter (91mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (93mph) and Change (91mph).


In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has well above average velo. Their slider has exceptional depth, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, has short glove-side cut, is much harder than usual and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has some natural sink. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo and has less armside run than typical. Their change is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, dives down out of the zone and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups.
