Their fourseam fastball is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their curve is thrown extremely hard, has primarily 12-6 movement, has little depth and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, is much harder than usual, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their splitter is thrown extremely hard, has movement that suggests a lot of backspin, results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' splitters and has slight armside fade. Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
