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

Nick Walton: C/3B, (2025) U of D Jesuit, MI. 5-foot-11, 175-pound. Confident during batting practice, the right-handed hitter had a max exit velocity of 81 mph. (63.4 mph bat speed average). (17.3 mph hand speed average). Begins in a pre-loaded stance with a slow big load, then uses a small leg kick. He created some loud contact and found some barrels. Behind the plate, he recorded a position velocity of 67 mph during throw downs. Solid while in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 75 mph; has consistent feet, a natural exchange, and sure hands. Movements laterally were developing and he fields the ball to the side. While catching, he produced a position velocity of 67 mph during throw downs; had consistent pop times of 2.04-2.25. During the event, ran the 60-yard dash in 8.09. (Max spin ; Avg )
