Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2014) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has slightly below average velo and has some added backspin. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2014) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2014) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
