In 2014, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2014) comes in below hitting speed, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has less armside movement than typical. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2014) has below average velo, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2014) comes in below hitting speed, has exceptional depth, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2014) comes in below hitting speed, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has strong cutting action. Their sinker (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' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run and has below average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2014) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite.
