60ft6in is dedicated to producing scouting reports on MLB and MiLB pitchers. Our reports tell you what pitchers throw, and how they use their repertoires. Rehashing ERAs and other numbers you can pick off a basic stat line is not for us. All information is gathered using video analysis only.
60ft6in is traveling through India and Nepal this off-season. The site will be updated again sometime in March. See you then!
"Great website. I have bookmarked it. Great job! The repertoire is something that I often look for when watching a game with pitch fx." - Sig Mejdal, Senior Quantitative Analyst, St. Louis Cardinals
"I love your website. It is a great resource! I do PITCH f/x research and am very interested in the subject of pitch classification, and I've been quite pleasantly surprised at how often you nail a pitcher's repertoire exactly." - Mike Fast, The Hardball Times, Sportvision

Adam Wainwright, RHP, starter
Wainwright throws a repertoire that consists of the four most common pitches in the game today. However, it's the results of his repertoire that makes him an uncommon ace righthander. Adam starts everything with his fastball, a pitch that flies anywhere between 90-95 mph, depending on what type of movement he's looking for. He has the ability to throw a 2-seam variety that gets good run, while also pumping a 95 mph 4-seamer up in the zone. Wainwright will then mix up his breaking balls between a mid to upper 80s slider and a devastating 12 to 6 curveball. Adam's fourth pitch is his changeup, although it appears to be equally as effective as any of his other offerings. Wainwright posesses excellent command of all four of these pitches, giving him the ability to dominate major league hitters.
Wainwright was a first round draft pick out of high school in 2000. After a few successful seasons in the Braves system, he was dealt for J.D. Drew in 2003. The Cardinals, quite intelligently, broke Wainwright into the major leagues by using him out of the bullpen in 2006. He pitched well that season, and ended up closing in the playoffs after Jason Isringhausen went down with an injury. He went on to close out all three postseason series, including throwing one of the most famous pitches in New York baseball history, when he froze Carlos Beltran with a backdoor curveball to end game 7 of the 2006 NLCS. In 2007, the Cardinals placed Wainwright in their rotation, where he quickly established himself as one of the more reliable pitchers in the game. 9/28/09 CSJ
