Built from his own fastball (98.6 mph) plus the typical shape 17 pitchers with his slot (44°) throw: a sinker around 98.4 mph, 9.0″ rise, +12.8″ arm-side. On the same model it grades +12 against his changeup, his weakest pitch that breaks the same way (+8 to +17 across the production and three cross-fit models), about 110 on his changeup’s scale; the comps’ own sinkers grade 101 at the median, so that sits above 88% of them. A season-long project that may not take: about 0.6 runs a season if it does.
