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+

Michael Doherty: LHP/OF, (2027) Phillips Academy Andover, MA. 5-foot-10, 148-pound athletic lean build. Projectable and athletic during batting practice, Doherty had a max exit velocity of 87 mph. (68.3 mph bat speed average). (21.1 mph hand speed average). Started in a balanced athletic stance with a controlled load, then used a short stride. Bat speed is quick, shows a loose simple swing plane and good extension on his finish. Found multiple barrels with loud contact. Gap to gap aggressive approach. Athletic from the outfield, he showed the ability to throw at velocities up to 76 mph; had a natural exchange, developing athletic footwork, and developing soft hands. Laterally, movements were developing athletically and fielded the ball out front. Consistent accuracy to the bases, used a high ¾ slot and a quick loose arm action. In the 60-yard dash, he clocked a time of 7.65. Projectable athletic on the mound, used a loose consistent arm action with a high ¾ arm angle while showing developing quick arm speed. Feel type pitcher who uses some effort. Showed consistent balance point with falling off shoulders. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Produced a fastball that came in at 77-78 mph; showed arm side sporadic command and running action. (Max spin 1895; Avg 1720). Showed glove side around the zone command and sweeping action on his curveball (61-64). (Max spin 1835; Avg 1835).
