The maximum speed, in the direction of home plate, that the wrist is traveling. Measured in meters per second (m/s)
Arm Slot
Angle of the forearm relative to the ground between maximum external rotation (MER) and ball release (BR). Which can be a powerful player comparison metric, delivered in degrees.
Knee Extension Velo
The angular velocity of the front knee straightening after foot plant, which provides indicators of velocity potential. Measured in degrees per second.
Deception
The amount of time that the ball is visible to the hitter, after the instant of front foot strike. Measures in milliseconds.
Hip-Shoulder Separation
The difference in angle of between the hips and shoulders, occurring close to the foot plant. Measured in degrees.
Uncommitted, 6-foot-2, 180-lb long frame w/ lower half strength and some projection. Worked strictly from the stretch w/ slightly closed setup and hands set at chest. Strong at balance point before tall n fall towards the plate w/ square foot landing. Long, smooth arm action working up to 3/4 slot. FB at 84-86, T 87, manipulating shape and varying spin (1884-2275 rpm) w/ late arm side life. Occasionally sinks it, others more lateral plane, bearing in on RHH. Tunnels sharp swing n miss SL at 75-77 (T 2502 rpm) w/ late biting depth. Played well off the FB, worked down in the zone and buried for chase. Also showed some feel for solid CH at 79-81 w/ some fade to keep LHH honest. Although lacking elite FB velocity, his SL might rank towards the top of the class for breaking stuff and he induced lots of weak contact at Future Games, tossing two scoreless frames w/ two punchouts.
