MAX FASTBALL
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | David Hamilton | TN | Grace Christian Academy | 2023 | OF | 90.1 mph |
2 | Ethan Myers | TN | Friendship Christian | 2023 | RHP | 83.8 mph |
3 | Nick Romagno | TN | Siegel | 2024 | RHP | 83.2 mph |
4 | Kaden Roraback | TN | Mt Juliet | 2024 | RHP | 83.0 mph |
5 | Bennett Gammon | TN | Smith County | 2025 | LHP | 82.5 mph |
Max Fastball Velocity: This metric calculates the speed of the pitch as it’s released from the pitcher’s hand.
PEAK SPIN RATE
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Nick Romagno | TN | Siegel | 2024 | RHP | 2205 rpm |
2 | Kaden Roraback | TN | Mt Juliet | 2024 | RHP | 2183 rpm |
3 | David Hamilton | TN | Grace Christian Academy | 2023 | OF | 2176 rpm |
4 | Timothy Henderson | TN | Coffee County | 2024 | LHP | 2173 rpm |
5 | Christian Henderson | TN | Clarksville | 2024 | RHP | 2166 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.
