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

RHP/INF Payton Soske (Barrington, 2023) is a lanky 6-foot-4, 190-pound right-hander with some upside. His arm works clean from a high ¾ slot that produces a heavy sinking fastball (84-85 mph), complimenting a short tight slider (74-77 mph) really well. At the plate, the right-handed hitter has a simple/strong swing that stays on-plane through the zone, favoring his pull-side with hard contact. Soske registered a peak exit velocity of 93.1 mph with a furthest batted ball of 336 feet. He also ran a 7.30 60 and topped at 84 mph across the infield.
Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 6-4, 190-pounds.
Delivery: Pitched exclusively from the stretch, athletic leg-kick that works into a drop drive lower-half, quick down the mound from balance point into foot plant.
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T85.1, 83.5-84.8 mph. Heavy sink action. T2177, 2052 average rpm.
SL: 73.6-77.2 mph. Around it at times, short action, tight shape and spin. T2342, 2295 average rpm.
Positional Profile: 3B
Hit: RHH. Tall, relaxed setup, quiet load and short stride. Simple, strong swing, creates bat speed, bat stays on-plane and was on the barrel to the pull-side gap.
Power: 93.1 max exit velocity, averaged 82 mph. 336’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 84 mph. Short arm that plays from a 3/4 slot, some life.
Defense: Soft hands, fields out front, loose actions.
Run: 7.30 runner in the 60.
