Tyler Rogers’ Secret Weapon

About this episode

The episode discusses Tyler Rogers' unique pitching style and the effectiveness of his sinker in Major League Baseball.

Tyler Rogers isn’t your typical pitcher—he throws the slowest fastball in MLB at 83 mph, yet he’s been lights out with a historic ERA, earning a big contract for being the best reliever available. His sinker? The most valuable in baseball for three years, even outperforming high-velocity arms. New data reveals hitters swing late on his sinker 58% of the time—three times the league average—and he’s been the leader since stats began tracking. He’s mastered deception, getting swings-and-misses on slow, late-breaking pitches against elite hitters like Nick Kurtz and Pete Alonso. This year? He’s throwing his sinker even more, and it’s making hitters swing even later—despite slower velocity and fewer sliders. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
