Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
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
Slider
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Slider
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.
The reactive strength index measurement of an athlete's explosiveness by comparing their jump height to the ground contact time in between their jumps. On a scale of 0-5.
Vertical Jump
A measure of any athlete's body strength and reach calculated from the flight time divided by the contact time.
The highest Edge Score within the given year. Edge Score is a comprehensive score that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing an assessment of an athlete’s overall visual ability.

A name that showed well on both sides of the ball last Monday was C/RHP Landon Montgomery (West Plains, 2026), who made the trip to St. Louis from the southwestern part of the state. A wiry 5-foot-10, 150-pound athlete with lean strength, Montgomery kept a flat barrel through the hitting zone and repeated line drive contact back up the middle of the field during BP. Defensively, he was quick to release from behind the plate and on the bag consistently, peaking at 75 mph with pop times in the 2.06-to-2.08 range. Montgomery jumped on the mound later in the event and ran his fastball up to 81 mph with heavy horizontal action (T18.9”, 16” average). He was able to land his slider in the zone consistently at 68-70 mph with late lateral break. Montgomery is a sophomore to follow whose tools should only continue to tick up as he gets older and stronger.
