A Look at Mariners Pitchers’ Velocity Metrics
Casey Sadler
His Fastball is below average in terms of velocity and he throws it on average 93.1 miles per hour. We are not able to compare his Four Seam Fastball to his Changeup because he does not feature both pitches in his repertoire. His Four Seam Fastball has a below average velocity difference from his Curveball, which is not very good as hitters looking for a Fastball could find a way to still make good timed contact with his Curveball given the lack of velocity difference. It is only a 13.3 MPH difference. He features a slider that generates above-average velocity on average, which is 88.0 miles per hour.
Drew Steckenrider
His Fastball is below average in terms of velocity and he throws it on average 93.6 miles per hour. The lack of a meaningful change in velocities is a problem if Drew Steckenrider wants to continue using a Changeup in his arsenal. The difference between his Fastball and Changeup is 6.2. We are not able to compare his Four Seam Fastball to his Curveball because he does not feature both pitches in his repertoire. He throws a softer slider than the average pitcher, his slider velocity is only 80.3 miles per hour.
Erik Swanson
He throws an above-average Fastball in velocity and he throws it on average 94.7 miles per hour. We are not able to compare his Four Seam Fastball to his Changeup because he does not feature both pitches in his repertoire. We are not able to compare his Four Seam Fastball to his Curveball because he does not feature both pitches in his repertoire.

Paul Sewald
His Fastball is below average in terms of velocity and he throws it on average 92.5 miles per hour. The difference between his average Four Seam Fastball and Changeup is 22.5, which is over 10 MPH and that is highly desired as the changeup is a more sudden change in velocity. We are not able to compare his Four Seam Fastball to his Curveball because he does not feature both pitches in his repertoire. He throws a softer slider than the average pitcher, his slider velocity is only 81.7 miles per hour.

Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…
“The Mariners would escape, and head to the 11th where VIVA LE FRANCE would come through with a two-run home run to give them a 9-7 lead. The Mariners got just that, as Flexen would go seven innings, giving up two runs (one earned) while striking out five. JP Crawford would single, and so would Mitch Haniger. They kept it coming in the next inning, as Mitch Haniger would break out of a power slump with a three-run home run, giving the Mariners a 5-0 lead.”
““It was a big spot,” France said. Until France stepped in. “He’s done it a few times this year, where he’s pulled us aside and just let us know he appreciates our work, all the work we put in and how proud he is of how far we’ve come,” France said. After a four-hour, two-minute marathon that needed 11 innings to complete and in which Seattle blew a five-run lead but bounced back to a 9-8 victory over the Rangers on Thursday afternoon at Globe Life Field, the Mariners’ manager called a postgame team meeting.”
“Boxscore » July 29: Brushes off collision in second Olympic game with three hits Julio Rodríguez was part of a scary collision with second baseman Gustavo Nuñez during the third inning of the Dominican Republic’s matchup with Mexico on Thursday. Rodríguez stayed in the game. 14: Returns from Olympic duties with two hits After winning a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics with the Dominican Republic, Julio Rodríguez had a nice return to Double-A Arkansas, going 2-for-4 with two runs scored. Boxscore » July 28: Collects first hit of Tokyo Olympics The last time baseball was played at the Olympics, Julio Rodríguez was just 7 years old.”
