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.

Joseph Leonard: 3B/RHP, (2023) St. Johns, MI. 6-foot-1, 165-pound. Projectable at the plate, the right-handed hitter had an exit velocity of 88 mph. Began in an open stance with a quick load, then used a quick toe tap stride. Has above average bat speed, short swing plane and high finish. Found some barrels with some loud contact. Pull side line drive approach. Solid in the infield, recorded a position velocity of 78 mph; has consistent in control feet, a natural exchange, and sure hands. Fields the ball deep, movements laterally were athletic. Performed well in the 60-yard dash, clocking a speedy time of 6.69. Solid fluid on the mound, used an over-the-top ¾ arm angle and a long arm action while showing quick good arm speed. Tall-and-fall type pitcher who shows high effort. Showed low consistent balance point with even shoulders. Lands closed with an athletic balanced finish. (Max spin 1667; Avg 1503).

Hitting: At the plate has a knee bend with his hands back. Takes a toe tap load while swinging with a top hand release. Takes a longer swing path showing power.
Pitching: Steps left moving to his waist high balance point throwing from a high 3/4 arm angle. Quick arm on the hill while throwing down in the zone. Showed a 12/6 break on the curve with a nice spin keeping hitters off balance 53-54 mph. Fastball sat 63-66 mph in the zone.
