Their fourseam fastball is straight as an arrow, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers and has well above average velo. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 14 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' sliders, has exceptional depth, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has short glove-side cut. Their cutter (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 5 of them in 2026) has heavy sink, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' cutters, has sweeping cut action and is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' cutters. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2026) is thrown extremely hard, is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' changeups, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has slight cut action. Their curve (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 4 of them in 2026) is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' curves, has a sharp downward bite and is slightly harder than usual.
