In 2022, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball has much less armside movement than typical, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their change using a circle change grip results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual and has slight armside fade. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip has a sharp downward bite and is slightly harder than usual. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2022) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has less armside run than typical.
