Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their fourseam fastball (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 17 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 12 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has less armside run than typical, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sinking action. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 3 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual, has slight cut action and has some natural sink to it.
