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.

Fall Campus Tour: Mercer
Impressed in his bullpen with a projectable 6 foot 2, 165 frame. He moves efficiently through the delivery from start to finish, and his patience over the rubber allows his arm to get connected with the largest muscles on the backside so they can fire together to the plate. He creates good rhythm through up, down, and out phases and times hip/shoulder separation well. Grant shows good balance, and proper sequence in the delivery. He has a feel for using the shoulders as a lever to work down hill, getting gradual tilt uphill in stride. Stride is optimal length and blocks lead leg well post landing for knee to knee clearance. The FB sat in the 82-83 range for consistent strikes with steep plane low in the zone and some front side deception. The CB worked in the 67-69 range with average spin but showed a good amount of sweep and some late depth for strikes. Jake showed a nice fading CH in the 70-72 range that he had good feel for. A jump in velo could put him in a very opportune spot.
