Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and is blazing fast. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 9 of them in 2025) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders, has primarily 12-6 movement and has some two-plane movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, has below average velo, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has a lot of backspin.
