In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (95mph) and Slider (85mph), also mixing in a Cutter (91mph).
In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action, has slightly above average velo and has slightly less natural movement than typical. Their slider is basically never swung at and missed 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 cutter (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' cutters, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has well above average velo, has little cutting action and has some natural sink.
