Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has an obvious tail 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, generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, has an obvious tail, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has well above average velo. Their change has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone and is slightly firmer than usual.
