Their slider has exceptional depth, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sliders and has primarily 12-6 movement.

Their sinker (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 11 of them in 2026) is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast and generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers.
