In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has essentially average velo. Their slider results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change dives down out of the zone, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade. Their curve results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has slight glove-side movement and has slightly below average velo. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2025) generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has some natural sink. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sinking action.
