Future Games Trials: Tampa - Data Dive
June 4, 2024
The Future Games Trials: Tampa took place Wednesday, May 29 at Carrollwood Day School in Tampa, FL. The event featured players from the 2025-2028 classes participating in a pro-style workout followed by gameplay in front of the PBR Florida Scouting Staff.
Inside today’s Data Dive, we will highlight the players with top metrics per Trackman, Blast, and Swift.
On Thursday, we broke down the stat leaders from the more traditional categories in our Statistical Leaderboards. Today, we will take an even closer look at the players in attendance with the help of our tech partners, broken down by the categories and leaderboards below.

FASTBALL
MAX VELOCITY (MPH)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Jake Carbaugh | FL | PLANT CITY HIGH SCHOOL | 2026 | RHP | 90.7 mph |
2 | Hector Rivera | FL | JESUIT HIGH SCHOOL | 2026 | RHP | 89.1 mph |
3 | Hunter Myrick | FL | Braden River | 2026 | RHP | 88.3 mph |
4 | Nicholas Bertrand | FL | Northside Christian | 2025 | RHP | 87.9 mph |
5 | Landen Boever | FL | Steinbrenner | 2025 | RHP | 86.1 mph |
SPIN RATE (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (avg) |
1 | Jake Carbaugh | FL | PLANT CITY HIGH SCHOOL | 2026 | RHP | 2305 rpm |
2 | Landen Boever | FL | Steinbrenner | 2025 | RHP | 2090 rpm |
3 | Nicholas Bertrand | FL | Northside Christian | 2025 | RHP | 2027 rpm |
4 | Luis Quintana | FL | south sumpter | 2026 | 3B | 2019 rpm |
5 | Caden Schlotterbeck | FL | Calvary Christian- Clearwater, FL | 2026 | LHP | 2004 rpm |
Spin Rate: This metric calculates the rate of spin on the baseball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Historical data shows that high-spin fastballs lessen the impact of gravity, allowing for more ‘rise’ (or less fall, in other words) as it carries through the zone. Low-spin fastballs typically indicate the pitch has greater horizontal action, often making it tougher to square up, but generally easier to make contact with, leading to more ground balls, while high-spin fastballs show a correlation with swings and misses.
SPIN EFFICIENCY% (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Efficiency % (avg) |
1 | Jake Carbaugh | FL | PLANT CITY HIGH SCHOOL | 2026 | RHP | 99 % |
2 | Nolan Parmer | FL | BERKELEY PREPARATORY SCHOOL | 2027 | RHP | 97 % |
3 | Brett Garcy | FL | Calvary Christian | 2026 | 3B | 97 % |
4 | Caden Schlotterbeck | FL | Calvary Christian- Clearwater, FL | 2026 | LHP | 96 % |
5 | Cooper Riley | FL | CLEARWATER CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL | 2026 | RHP | 96 % |
Spin Efficiency: This metric is the percentage of the raw spin rate that directly impacts pitch movement; so while raw spin is measured by revolutions per minute (rpm), spin efficiency is the ratio of true spin divided by raw spin. It’s important to understand that more is not always better when it comes to spin efficiency. The optimal spin efficiency on a pitch depends on the pitch type and should be understood in the context of a pitcher’s entire arsenal. Regarding the true four-seam fastball, a spin efficiency close to 100 percent is preferable, indicating that nearly all the backspin generated on the ball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand is contributing to the “riding” action the pitch has as it enters and exits the strike zone, making it especially effective in the upper third of the strike zone.
INDUCED VERTICAL BREAK (AVG.)
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | IVB (avg) |
1 | Luis Quintana | FL | south sumpter | 2026 | 3B | 19.9 in |
2 | Brett Garcy | FL | Calvary Christian | 2026 | 3B | 19.5 in |
3 | Nolan Parmer | FL | BERKELEY PREPARATORY SCHOOL | 2027 | RHP | 18.6 in |
4 | Hunter Myrick | FL | Braden River | 2026 | RHP | 18.6 in |
5 | Roman Petruccelli | FL | Calvary Christian Clearwater Florida | 2026 | RHP | 18.4 in |
Induced Vertical Break: Used in short form as "IVB," this metric is most important on fastballs for creating rise and on curveballs for creating depth – it can also have some use when measuring sliders and cutters as well. Sliders tend to be closer to zero inches while cutters are generally between 5 and 15 inches. Usually fastballs and curveballs with large IVB have higher spin efficiencies as well. Sliders generally have very little (closer to zero) IVB and very low spin efficiency. You could also categorize IVB into spin rate as this is part of the “useful movement” you’re looking for. IVB is also a huge part of the vertical approach angle.

4 | Luis Quintana | FL | south sumpter | 2026 | 3B | 13.4 |
5 | Nolan Parmer | FL | BERKELEY PREPARATORY SCHOOL | 2027 | RHP | 13.0 |
Horizontal Break: Outlined on TrackMan’s own website: “... horizontal movement is measured in inches between where the pitch actually crosses the front of home plate side-wise, and where it would have crossed home plate side-wise if had it traveled in a perfectly straight line from release. A positive number means the break was to the right from the pitcher’s perspective, while a negative number means the break was to the left from the pitcher’s perspective.”

10-YARD SPLIT
Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.

Rotational Acceleration: Rotation measures how quickly your bat accelerates into the swing plane. Rotation is a good indicator of how you build bat speed by sequencing properly vs. pulling the bat with your hands. The quicker your rotational acceleration, the more power you will have and the more time you have to make a decision at the plate.
