| Stuff-to-Whiff Gap (Tunneling)1.00 | Elite raw stuff but poor pitch tunneling — hitters read pitches early | Pair pitches with tighter release-point similarity and greater late movement divergenceClosing tunnel gap could add 24.0pp to whiff rate | MEDIUM |
| Arsenal Gap: Gloveside Drop0.60 | No vertical drop pitch (Curveball/Knuckle Curve) — hitters can ignore low zone | Develop a Curveball to cover the gloveside-drop regionFilling this gap would improve platoon coverage and arsenal depth | HIGH |
