This looks like the curveball grip by Travis Wood of the Chicago Cubs. I used this for a while myself. By getting your index finger out of the way, it feels like you can get more spin on the baseball. I learned the grip when Mike Krukow of the Cubs (and later the Giants) used it. (Note: There’s a slight chance he throws his slider or cutter with this grip.)
