Their cutter has good "rise", results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has slightly below average velo and has strong cutting action. Their fourseam fastball has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slight armside run. Their slider generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve has a sharp downward bite, has primarily 12-6 movement, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has slightly below average velo.
