Their fourseam fastball is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has much less armside movement than typical. Their slider sweeps across the zone, is much harder than usual and has less than expected depth. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, has surprisingly little armside run, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers. Their splitter is thrown extremely hard, has surprising cut action, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' splitters, has some natural sink to it and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' splitters.
