Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider is much harder than usual and has some two-plane movement. Their change dives down out of the zone, is slightly firmer than usual and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual.
