Their sinker is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, has surprisingly little armside run, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their cutter is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters and has some natural sink.
