I've seen it quoted by Markus that different pitches make a difference.
The spitter, circle change, cutter have a higher strike out rate, others produce a higher GB rate. Not sure how much effect it has but have seen it stated that there is a difference between the pitches. So yes it will matter if your pitcher has all fastball type pitches or all breaking balls.
