Classifying Pitch Types for Better Analysis

“So, in order to not reduce sample sizes too small, pitch types were broken down into 3 classifications – fastballs, breaking balls, and offspeed pitches.

The Importance of Pitch Type in Baseball Analytics

Understanding pitch types is essential for analyzing a pitcher’s performance and effectiveness. Different pitch classifications offer unique strategic advantages and can significantly impact the outcomes of at-bats. By breaking down pitch types into fastballs, breaking balls, and offspeed pitches, we can better evaluate a pitcher’s strengths and weaknesses, ultimately enhancing our understanding of the game.

Incorporating pitch type analysis into baseball statistics allows for a more nuanced understanding of pitcher performance. By recognizing how different pitches affect outcomes, teams can make informed decisions on pitching strategies and player development. As analytics continue to evolve, the significance of pitch type will only grow, making it an indispensable part of the game.

    Pitcher Launch Angle, Visualized, Part 1

    In May, I tweeted that I had a hunch that pitchers had very little (to zero) control over exit velocities against them. This is going to sound stupid, verging on really stupid, but I honestly wonder if pitchers have any control over EV, like, at all and whether or not their allowed batted ball quality…
