Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider sweeps across the zone, has exceptional depth and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has well above average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' cutters, has some natural sink and has strong cutting action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, dives down out of the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and is much firmer than usual. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2026) has an exceptional bite, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, has sweeping glove-side movement, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual.
