In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (94mph) and Slider (85mph), also mixing in a Curve (82mph).

In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly above average velo. Their slider results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2026) has primarily 12-6 movement, generates more whiffs/swing 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. Their change using a circle change grip (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
