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.

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: 1B/RHP
Body: 6-5, 190-pounds. Trim, high-waisted frame with long levers.
Hit: RHH. Wider setup, quiet hands load back, short stride, utilizes lower-half. Loose swing, easy effort, works to stay on top of the ball, uses levers to loft the ball to pull-side with ease, balanced finish, plenty more power to come. 64.5 mph bat speed with 7 G’s of rotational acceleration.
Power: 90 max exit velocity, averaged 82.3 mph. 344’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 84 mph. Quick, compact arm action, high 3/4 release.
Defense: Plays with leverage, soft hands, confident in his hands, has some feel for the position, fluid footwork.
Run: 7.54 runner in the 60.
Mackey is a 6-foot-5, 175-pound right-handed hitting first baseman with his best days still ahead of him. He has a loose, easy swing that can lift the ball with ease to his pull-side, staying balanced throughout his operation and through impact. Throughout his round of BP, he reached up to 90.1 mph for his max EV while also reaching up to 344’ for his max distance. Steady defender at first, soft hands with confident actions.
INF/RHP Danny Mackey III (Lincoln-Way East) flashed two-way ability over the weekend. At 6-foot-4, 190-pounds, Mackey provides a physically imposing frame on the field. On Saturday, Mackey tallied three hits in the two games we saw of him and also started on the mound in game two. Offensively, Mackey was more of a line-drive singles hitter who showed the ability to stay back and drive the ball where it was pitched. On the bump, Mackey tossed three shutout innings against a tough Chicago Hustle lineup, scattering four hits. Mackey worked his fastball mainly from 75-78 mph, mixing in a changeup in the low 70’s to induce ground balls.
1B Danny Mackey III (Lincoln Way East, 2025) was one of many participants at the event who put their names on our radar to follow. Mackey is a 6-foot-4, 190-pound, big bodied right-handed hitter that passes the eye test. He showcased a polished, loose swing with barrel awareness and easy strength. Mackey wore out the middle of the field with hard, line-drive contact and flashed some pull side pop. Those line drives project for much more power as he continues to fill out his frame. Defensively he was equally impressive moving with above average agility for a player his size and age. His feet work well around the bag and his arm plays stronger than the velocity recorded on the day. Mackey is a prospect to follow that will continue to rise with added strength.
Positional Profile: 1B/3B
Body: 6-0, 170-pounds. Big build, strength throughout.
Hit: RHH. Balanced setup, slightly open, quiet feet into a short stride. Short path to contact, some feel to elevate, lower half repeats.
Power: 79.84 max exit velocity, averaged 72.32 mph. 259’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 69 mph. Loose, high 3/4 slot.
Defense: Soft hands with a clean transfer, fluid footwork, mature infield actions.
Run: 8.99 runner in the 60.
