Pitch type values for the four Red regulars

Fangraphs has all kinds of handy stats, including sortable pitch type values. Only four Reds have accumulated sufficient at-bats to really form the basis for judgment in 2011 (or to "qualify for the batting title"), and you probably know which ones - Votto, Phillips, Stubbs and Bruce.

Fastballs:
Votto is 2nd best in MLB
BP, Stubbs and Bruce are all moderately good

Sliders:
Bruce is 6th best in MLB
Votto is neutral
Stubbs and BP are both terrible

Cutters:
Votto and BP are both in the top 30 of MLB
Bruce is moderately good
Stubbs is terrible

Curveballs:
Votto is #37 in MLB
Stubbs is neutral
Bruce is moderately bad
BP is terrible

Changeups:
Votto, Bruce and BP are all moderately good
Stubbs is terrible
