In 2016, compared to other LHP:
Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2016) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2016) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, has below average velo and has strong cutting action. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2016) has an exceptional bite, has sweeping glove-side movement, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' curves and has slightly below average velo. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2016) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has slightly below average velo. Their splitter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2016) has surprising cut action, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' splitters and has slightly below average velo.
