Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
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

Listed at 5-foot-11, 159-pounds with a wiry and projectable frame. The right-hander has a high-spinning fastball, averaging over 2,400 RPM and sitting 83-84 mph (T27.7 IVB). His changeup sat 69-74 mph, fading over 15” to his arm-side with a max IVB of 21.9. His final offering was a splitter at 68-71 mph, killing spin and fading to the bottom of the zone with some feel.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-0, 155-pounds. Athletic frame.
Delivery: Tall, staggered start from the right of the rubber; smooth, low tempo side step to tall balance point, low knee lift, quick pace to home, level shoulders, works on line. Square landing, low-effort finish with some athleticism; maintains balance well throughout.
Arm Action: RH. Long draw and circle to high 3/4 slot; easy, loose, quick arm.
FB: T85, 83-85 mph. Some natural tail but mostly a straight four-seam type with substantial carry; averaged an induced vertical break of 19.8 inches, among the event's highest.
CH: 73-74 mph. Slightly lowers release height but maintains similar arm speed; generates arm-side run/fade well.
SPLT: 70-71 mph. Does feature some late tumble that differs from the changeup grip and movement profile; some feel for it.
Hit: RHH. Upright, balanced setup. Small leg-lift and load, short stride. Easy, simple, repeatable swing. Tends to work uphill through the zone, gap-to-gap approach.
Power: 84 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Arm: RH. OF - 87 mph. High 3/4 arm slot, loose action. Lively arm and ball carries out of hand.
Defense: Proper routes, sets up behind the baseball, and plays through, athletic crow hop.
Run: 7.05 runner in the 60.
