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

5-foot-10, 135-pound left-handed pitcher and left-handed hitting first baseman. The bat has an exit velocity of 72 mph. The setup is narrow in base and the swing is uphill through contact. On the mound, the fastball touched 71 mph with arm side action to it. The spin pitch is a breaking ball in the upper 50's. The spin is wide and needs to be thrown with better fastball hand speed. The changeup is a work in progress, sitting 62-63. The arm slot is 3/4 and he shows recoil in the delivery at release.
Niall Menon: LHP/1B, (2028) Newton South High, MA. 5-foot-9, 130-pound slim build. Capable on the mound, showed consistent arm speed, also used a consistent short arm action and a ¾ arm angle. Feel type pitcher and showed effort. Showed consistent balance point and in line shoulders. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Produced a fastball that came in at 69-70 mph; shows running action and arm side command. (Max spin 1801; Avg 1724). His curveball (58-59) shows glove side control and sweeping action. (Max spin 1561; Avg 1513).
