Their sinker using a two-seam fastball grip generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their splitter has some natural sink to it and is slightly firmer than usual. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has less than expected depth and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their curve has little depth and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves.
