Their change is thrown extremely hard, dives down out of the zone, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo, has slight armside run and has some natural sinking action. Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action and has slightly above average velo. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2026) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters and has well above average velo.
