He throws both. A ton.

The depth he gets on the curveball is sick.

quote:

The Astros' front office and coaching staff also told McHugh that the spin rate on his curveball was among the highest of any pitcher in the game and that he should be throwing the curve more. McHugh changed his approach, going from a hurler who was heavily dependent on his fastball to one who was much more unpredictable and used all four of his pitches (the others, a changeup and a slider/cutter).

I have only seen one McHugh start and it was slider after slider. Pretty sure he leads all starters in terms of slider usage as well.

Nice repitiore

FB is rather pedestrian but can locate it to go along with 2 or 3 other plus pitches. Good "pitcher"

Had him in a few leagues last year and dropped him, which I regret. Didn't have the track record so I was one of the skeptics
