He's a sidearming righthander, though he hasn't shown the platoon split you might expect from a sidearmer because his changeup is a pretty good weapon. He's about 86-91 mph with his fastball, sitting in the high-80s and touching 92 a few times, with a high-70s changeup and a sweeping slider typically in the 78-80 mph range. He's not overpowering, but he got a surprising number of swings and misses on all three of his pitches.
