In 2026, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has heavy sinking action, has an obvious tail and has slightly above average velo. Their slider has exceptional depth, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and generates fewer whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their sinker has heavy sinking action, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has an obvious tail and has well above average velo. Their change has an obvious armside fade, dives down out of the zone and is slightly firmer than usual.
