Carpenter throws a lot of fastballs -- as most pitchers do -- but it's not a particularly effective pitch for him, or at least it hasn't been this season. He mixes in some curveballs -- which essentially serves as his change-up, since he throws so few of those that they don't show up here -- but those haven't been that good this season, either.

Carpenter's slider, though? He throws his slider roughly a fourth of the time, and it's been his best pitch this season.
