2020 Scout Day: Lake Erie Warhawks - Advanced Hitting Metrics With Rapsodo

Notes:

• Recorded metrics are based off of Rapsodo 2.0 technology.
• Exit Velocity:  Exit Velo is the speed of the baseball as it comes off the bat after contact.

2020 Scout Day: Lake Erie Warhawks - Advanced Pitching Metrics With PitchLogic

Notes:

• Recorded velocities listed are from the game play session, taken off of a stalker radar gun.
• Total Spin (rpm): The total amount of rotations per minute put on the baseball out of the hand.
• Spin Efficiency: Ratio of transverse to total spin... simple meaning is a higher efficiency yields more movement.

Fastball Spin Rates

The average fastball spin rate at the MLB level can range from 2050 - 2250 rpm.  The average at the high school level will be lower, but can be hard to track as most pitchers that are getting spin rate readings, are typically more advanced.  When looking at fastball spin rates, coaches and scouts are looking for pitchers that are outside the norm.  High spin rate fastball, typically, tend to ride on hitter, creating swing and miss, and playing at the top of the strike zone.  Low spin rate guys, typically, are creating some sink on their fastball, or the appearance that the fastball is diving.

The pure spin rate does not tell the whole story on any one pitch.  Coaches and scouts are also evaluating spin efficiency and spin direction.  They also want to see some consistency, pitch-to-pitch, on the release point.

Name	Position	School	Class	Total Spin
Will Sevier	RHP	Arapahoe (CO)	2021	2190-2270
Jacob McCann	LHP	Amherst Steele	2021	2180-2270
Chris Domke	RHP	North Royalton	2023	2160-2270
Jacob Krausher	RHP	Vermilion	2021	2140-2260
Aidan Cooney	RHP	St. Ignatius	2021	2060-2180

Breaking Ball Spin Rates

Typically bigger spin can mean bigger break, but again on the breaking ball the spin efficiency can play a part.  There are also studies that show the speed of the pitch can affect if the spin rate has a chance to take hold and create the break a pitcher is looking for.  Below is a look at each pitcher that threw his breaking ball and what the analytics of each pitch looked like with the PitchLogic baseball.

Name	Position	School	Class	Total Spin
Will Sevier	RHP	Aprahoe (CO)	2021	2680-2705
Scott Adelman	RHP	Norwalk St. Paul's	2021	2240-2460
Chris Phillips	RHP	Elyria Catholic	2021	2270-2370
Jacob Evans	RHP	Wellington	2021	2180-2360
Jacob McCann	LHP	Amherst Steele	2021	2180-2360
