In 2024, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slider is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone and has some two-plane movement. Their change generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has slight armside fade and has some natural sink to it. Their cutter generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, has heavy sink, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has little cutting action and has slightly below average velo. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2024) has heavy sinking action, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slight armside run and has slightly below average velo.
