Hip-Shoulder Separation
The difference in angle of between the hips and shoulders, occurring close to the foot plant. Measured in degrees.
OF/RHP Aidan Capone (Auburn) was one of the top winners from the event and should be a two-way prospect to follow closely moving forward. Capone has an athletic 6-foot-2, 180-pound frame that has added quality strength since our last look in August of 2022. On the mound, he showed an up-tempo, athletic delivery, paired with a quick and lively arm. The fastball sat 86-88 mph, with late run and jump through the zone. Capone also mixed in a mid-70s slider with a late wrinkle and a changeup that played at 75-78.5 mph with an average of 17 inches of horizontal movement. At the plate, Capone flashed a whippy, strong barrel with a pull-side approach, he recorded one of the top exit velocities of the day (97 mph). From the outfield, he showed athleticism getting to the ball, and a strong arm that was recorded at 92 mph. Additionally, Capone ran a 6.97 60-yard dash.
