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.

LHP Joey Broughton (Northville, MI, 2024; Pittsburgh) is one of Michigan’s highest rated prospects, sitting at No. 3 in the state’s 2024 class (No. 179 nationally). Although Broughton’s sheer dominance on the mound was impressive, his demeanor on the mound was also notable. A true competitor who walked around the bump with quiet confidence, it was clear the thought on Broughton’s mind was to throw strikes and win. Standing at 6-foot-2, 197-pounds, it took minimal effort to produce upper-80s fastballs that touched 90 mph and 91 mph. His curveball sat 75-77 mph with 2500 RPM, and he threw it for strikes, keeping hitters off balanced. In four innings of work, Broughton struck out nine and allowed one hit.
Joey Broughton: LHP/1B, (2024) Northville, MI. Pittsburgh Commit, 6-foot-2, 192-pound. Projectable athletic on the mound, had a short quick arm action and an over-the-top high ¾ arm angle with quick electric arm speed. Tilt-and-topple drop-and-drive type pitcher and shows high effort. Showed a tall athletic balance point. Lands square with recoil upright finish. (Max spin 2334; Avg 2302).
