In 2025, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth, is much harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their change is thrown extremely hard, dives down out of the zone, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade. Their curve is slightly harder than usual, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has slight glove-side movement. Their cutter results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has little cutting action, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sink. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2025) results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
