The riding life and strong present velocity of the FB for Coye set up each of his offspeed offerings. Coye spins an emerging SLD that flashed several quality metrics including spin rates approaching the 2400 RPM range with an average of -8.2" of glove side break while staying flatter in it's shape and living in the 70-72 MPH range. The CHG for Coye has splitter like action including average spin rates below 1000 RPMs with on average 10+" of separation off his FB IVB metric and producing arm side run of around 10" on average.
