Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their slider is thrown extremely hard, is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sliders, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their curve generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' curves, has sweeping glove-side movement, is much harder than usual, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and has a sharp downward bite. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2025) 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 some natural sink to it. Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 8 of them in 2025) is basically never swung at and missed 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.
