Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo. Their sinker is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their change has surprising cut action and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their slider generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual, has less than expected depth and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement.
