Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Sink+
A fastball with sink has low backspin and drops through the strike zone. When thrown down in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher ground ball percentage and lower launch angle. Sink+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average
Curveball
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Curveball
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average

Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Positional Profile: RHP/C
Body: 6-0, 150-pounds.
Delivery: Slower and controlled body.
Arm Action: RH. Longer arm action, lower-mid 3/4 slot.
FB: T85, 83-85 mph. Arm side run, plays down in the zone. T2076, 1984 average rpm.
CB: 66-69 mph. 11/5 shape, has feel in the zone. Throws for strikes. T1756, 1648 average rpm.
SL: 72-72 mph. Hard, downer action. T1811, 1811 average rpm.
CH: 73-73 mph. Slows the body down at times, spotty command. Arm side run when located down in the zone. T1559, 1542 average rpm.
Positional Profile: RHP/C
Body: 6-1, 149-pounds. Lean and wirey frame with an athletic and proportional build. Has room to add mass.
Delivery: Smooth delivery down the mound with strong presence on his backside as he sits and glides with the slope. Leads with his front hip and shows ability to get out over his plant leg as he braces nicely and allows the arm to work.
Arm Action: RH. Longer arm that maintains seperation from body at hand break. Low 3/4 slot
FB: T83, 79-81 mph. FB worked well with arm side run down in the zone. Can live away, while showing the ability to work into RHH. T2154, 2008 average rpm.
CB: 69-72 mph. CB lacked true depth and offered more of a top spinning shape that rolled over. Showed ability to throw it for stikes but primarily used as a get me over pitch at its current development. T1702, 1664 average rpm.
CH: 68-70 mph. CH showed abilty to affect hitters with speed difference. Showed ability to kill spin rate and tunnel off FB. Showed some ASR to lefties where he felt more comfortable in allowing pitch to work for him. Could look to gain confidence with pitch by attacking righty on righty. T1726, 1659 average rpm.
5-foot-11, 145-pound slim, lanky frame. Solid approach at the plate, Gann recorded an exit velocity of 80 mph. Begins in a balanced stance with a slow load, and uses a quick stride to get the barrel to the hitting zone on time. Bat speed is developing, has a short level swing plane and good extension on his finish. Barreled up some balls during the round showing a line drive approach. Behind the plate, his best throws to 2B was clocked at 72 mph; had a natural exchange, and smooth footwork. Showed consistent pop times of 2.25-2.29 and a a flexible setup. Used a high ¾ slot with a quick arm action while showing consistent accuracy to the base. During the event, clocked a 60 time of 7.73.
