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.

Physical: Strong, durable 5-foot-11, 185lb frame with advanced feel and athleticism present.
Pitching: RHP - Started off the far left side of the rubber with the left foot in front of right. Momentum gaining pace, creating some hip-coil and hiding the baseball at the top of the stack. Worked down the slope with good separation and arm talent from a loose, H ¾ slot. The FB entered at 85-88 mph at 2122rpms, able to carry on occasion above the letters at a 42% zone rate (via Trackman). Mixed in a two-plane 69-71 mph CB with late depth on its way to the plate, missing barrels when commanded for strikes. Then added a developing 77-80 mph CH with good sell and killed spin.
Physical: Athletic 5-foot-11, 185 lb build with a strong lower half.
Pitching: Side step into a leg lift with a hip coil before driving out in line and accelerating against a strong front side; Arm drops straigh down out of the glove before working up quick through a power 3/4 slot. FB: Has lif through the zone with advanced induced vertical break up to 22". CB: High spin (2453 RPM) with 11-5 shape and advanced movement (19" vertical drop / 12" horizontal movement). CH: Good hand speed with up to 17" arm side fade
