In 2024, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Curve using a Knuckle Curve grip (81mph), also mixing in a Slider (85mph). He also rarely throws a Sinker (94mph) and Change (84mph).
In 2024, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has some natural sinking action and has well above average velo. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip has primarily 12-6 movement and is much harder than usual. Their slider generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2024) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it.
