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.

OF Jake Swanson (Grant, 2023) has upside on both sides of the ball, and he showed that to our scouts on Sunday. A 6-foot, 180-pound left/left athlete, Swanson used his levers to flash above-average bat strength in BP, sending his furthest ball an estimated distance of 349 feet, per TrackMan. Where Swanson flashed the most was with his arm strength, as he uncorked the hardest throw home from the outfield we’ve seen this winter so far at 92 mph during his defensive workout. He hopped on the mound later on in the day as well and reached an 84 mph max with his fastball, too.
