Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 2 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, dives down out of the zone, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and is slightly firmer than usual.
