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.
Michael Thresher: OF/LHP, (2023) out of Bishop Brady, NH. is a 5-foot-10, 170-pound two-way prospect. At the plate, Thresher had a max exit velocity of 85 MPH. He begins in a wide, balanced stance with the hands relaxed. A controlled load and short stride trigger a swing that takes a long, uphill path through the hitting zone. He stays balanced throughout and finishes through contact. In the outfield, Thresher uses a short, ¾ arm slot to record a velocity of 75 MPH on his throws. During the defensive portion, he showed he had a clean exchange, smooth footwork, and sure hands. In the 60-yard dash, he recorded a time of 7.4. On the mound, Thresher uses a short, ¾ arm swing to produce a fastball that sits 76-77 MPH with some arm side run. The delivery is clean. He gets to a good balance point and separates the hands at the top. He gets good direction with home plate and lands balanced. The finish is clean, with the release being consistent. In addition to the running fastball, Thresher also features a slurvy curveball (58-59 MPH) and a changeup (57-58 MPH) with late fading action.
