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
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.

He stands at a hulking, yet projectable, 6-foot-5, 190 pounds and he uses every bit of it to work down the rubber, making for an uncomfortable at-bat. Mueller routinely attacked the bottom half of the zone with an 86-88 mph fastball that played with downhill tilt from a high release point. Mueller rounded out his arsenal with a slider and changeup, the former being his go-to secondary pitch; a frisbee-like offering that spins off a 10/4 plane and flashed swing-and-miss potential. He’s cemented himself as a high-follow arm in the state’s junior class. It’s worth mentioning he swings a fast left-handed bat that created some loud contact on Sunday, too, reaching a max exit speed of 94.3 mph.
6-foot-4, 195 pounds; durable/strong build. Slow tempo left-hander who attacks hitters with a low-effort fastball, 80-82 mph, touching 83. Mixes in 1/7 breaking ball at 66 mph, solid action, showed signs of controlling it. Mueller controlled the two-pitch arsenal effectively over the weekend with relative ease, and his size offers some big projection.
