Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Orlando Ribalta has thrown 836 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), Slider (85mph) and Change (84mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (92mph).


In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has well above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their change generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action and has a lot of backspin. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slight armside run.
