In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 6 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone and results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has much less armside movement than typical and has essentially average velo. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual and has some natural sink to it. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves and has slight glove-side movement.
