2020 Scout Day: Canes Baseball Club - 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: Canes Baseball Club - 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
Kenny Blackmore	LHP	Beavercreek	2021	2000-2200
Mason McElroy	RHP	Miamisburg	2022	2000-2200
Ben Zink	RHP	Northmont	2022	2000-2200
Nate Rhylick	LHP	Northmont	2021	2000-2100
Dawson Blunt	LHP	Kettering Fairmont	2022	1900-2100
Brady Davis	RHP	Eaton	2022	1900-2100

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
Christian Reeves	RHP	Beavercreek	2021	2000-2300
Jared Burke	RHP	Fenwick	2021	2000-2200
Tanner Lenhart	RHP	Northmont	2022	2000-2200
Owen Tedder	RHP	Beavercreek	2022	2000-2200
Richard Ganger	RHP	Northmont	2022	2000-2200
