In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, has essentially average velo and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers. Their slider has exceptional depth and has short glove-side cut. Their change is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups, has surprising cut action, dives down out of the zone, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups and is much firmer than usual. Their sinker is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has surprisingly little armside run, has slightly above average velo and has some natural sinking action.
