In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is thrown at a speed that's borderline unfair and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in somewhat more groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve has an exceptional bite, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has slightly below average velo. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight armside fade.
