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

St. Louis commit. Durable frame, standing 5-foot-11, 180-pounds with a wide-shouldered build. Fluid moving delivery down the mound that produced a fastball at 82-84 mph, running naturally through the zone to the arm-side. His slider worked at 70-71 mph off a 2/8 plane, sweeping through the zone with sharp action at times. Settled in nicely after the first inning, bulldog mentality on the mound.
