In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has essentially average velo, has slight armside run and has some added backspin. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 16 of them in 2026) has an obvious armside fade and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 14 of them in 2026) results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 7 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has primarily 12-6 movement. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has little sinking action compared to a true sinker, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has slightly above average velo. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 1 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has surprisingly little cutting action, has slightly below average velo and has some natural sink.
