Their sinker has heavy sinking action, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has slight armside run and has slightly above average velo. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2024) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2024) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, is much harder than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite.
