Their sinker results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action. Their slider generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual and has some two-plane movement. Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical.
