bringing the heat: formerly a low 90’s sinkerballer, has developed into one of the hardest-throwing starting pitchers in the game...has posted an average fastball velocity of 96.6 miles per hour this year, which ranks 3rd among Major League starters behind Noah Syndergaard (98.3) and Luis Severino (98.3).

• in 2017, his average fastball velocity of 95.0 miles per hour was the 7th-hardest among all Major League starting pitchers.
