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.

UTIL Austin Aldrige (Seneca, 2024) is an uncommitted senior that gave an intriguing look over the weekend. He’s athletically built at 5-foot-11, 160-pounds with plenty of room to add on strength in the coming years. He flashed some impressive tools throughout the event, starting with his showing on the mound, as he ran his fastball up to 86 mph with an average IVB of 15.3 (T18.5). He can spin both his breaking balls at an above-average clip, with his slider spinning around 2500-2600 RPM and his curveball coming in around 2200-2300 RPM, landing both offerings for strikes 50% of the time. He also flashed some feel for his changeup, playing in the low-70s with mostly straight action.
Positional Profile: C/RHP
Body: 5-11, 160-pounds. Trim, lean frame, some strength throughout, evenly proportioned, sloped shoulders.
Hit: RHH. Balanced setup, knee knock short stride, flat load. Controlled aggression, middle of the field approach, on the barrel at times with occasional lift. 69.1 mph bat speed with 29 G’s of rotational acceleration.

Arm: RH. C - 77 mph. INF - 78 mph. C: Compact arm path, 3/4 slot. INF: Compact, aggressive arm path, side arm action.
Defense: 2.12-2.19 pop times. C: Steady hands, clean transfer, works in-line to the bag, clean block. INF: Fields the ball in center of body, secures it through release, quick exchange at times.
Run: 7.42 runner in the 60.
Positional Profile: C/RHP
