Their cutter is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters, has some natural sink and has strong cutting action. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 15 of them in 2026) has an exceptional bite, generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, results in 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 13 of them in 2026) dives down out of the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, is slightly firmer than usual and has slight armside fade. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 10 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has some natural sinking action.
