Let’s start with a table.
Pitch velocities
Pitch | Avg. velocity |
---|---|
Pitch | Avg. velocity |
Four-seam fastball | 91.1 |
Sinker | 90.6 |
Cutter | 87.0 |
Changeup | 85.1 |
Curveball | 78.7 |
This is scary. This is one of the things that people have latched on to when complaining about Aaron Nola. It’s been easy to do as he has not pitched well in any of his first four outings.
