Their fourseam fastball is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has essentially average velo, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2024) sweeps across the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has below average velo and has some two-plane movement. Their change generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, dives down out of the zone and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2024) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has some natural sink and has strong cutting action. Their curve using a knuckle curve grip (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 13 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite, is slightly harder than usual and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2024) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical and has slightly below average velo.
