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.

Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Positional Profile: LHP/OF LHH/OF Will add strength. Run will improve in future, will be solid runner in time. Defensively corner OF'r, moves well to baseball. Arm will continue to develop raw arm strength. Project nice bat/power combo in future. Development opportunities present, nice base to approach and swing to make adjustments.
Body: 5-10, 154-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future.
Hit: LHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot that gets stuck, work to get foot fully turned towards mound. Stay into your feet, stride foot rolls over to outside of foot, losing energy/power. With rotation of foot, work to explode lower 1/2 into firm front side. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Length to swing, work to take hands/barrel on direct path to hit zone. Barrel presently cast around creating length. 61.7 mph bat speed with 11 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 86 max exit velocity, averaged 76.0 mph. 280' max distance. Project solid bat/power combo in future. Development opportunities present for adjustments. Nice base to work with for changes.
Arm: LH. OF-84 mph. Arm works well, arm speed will improve, see with avg arm in future.
Defense: Moves well to baseball, nice job of breaking down to field baseball. Hands work fielding with solid glove to hand exchange, feet work well setting to throw.
ATH: 7.32 runner in the 60. 1.75 and 4.13 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard. Upright runner, develop slight lean forward with head and shoulders. Speed will increase some with added strength and improved run form. 18.90 max vertical.
Positional Profile: LHP/OF LHH/OF Will add strength. Run will improve in future, will be solid runner in time. Defensively corner OF'r, moves well to baseball. Arm will continue to develop raw arm strength. Project nice bat/power combo in future. Development opportunities present, nice base to approach and swing to make adjustments. LHP…arm works, expect arm speed to increase with added strength. FB will improve with added arm speed, strike thrower with FB, some life present. CB has spin, will improve. Change shows action, deception can improve. Will develop on mound.
Body: 5-10, 154-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future.
Delivery: Stretch only, loads into back leg with knee lift and hip turn. Online stride, lands with toe open, occasionally lands on heel. Spin off finish, direction can be improved.
Arm Action: LH. Full circle, works fine, HTQ slot, good finish.
FB: T81, 79-81 mph. Tailing action increasing to arm side, some tail action to glove side. Strike thrower. T2123, 1986 average rpm.
CB: 69-71 mph. Short breaker, shows some depth to glove side. Solid pitch, look for action to improve with added velocity. T2202, 2108 average rpm.
CH: 72-73 mph. Strikes with change. Tail/sink action. Fair deception, slows arm and delivery. Maintain delivery and arm speed. T1919, 1812 average rpm.
ATH: 7.32 runner in the 60. 1.75 and 4.13 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard. Upright runner, develop slight lean forward with head and shoulders. Speed will increase some with added strength and improved run form. 18.90 max vertical.
