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
Curveball
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Curveball
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.

2024 RHPs William Nazha (Barrington) and Luke Mejdrich (Hampshire) featured two of the better curveballs in attendance. Nazha’s curveball worked at 69-71 mph with sharp, tight spin (2491 average rpm), depth and action off an 11/5 plane with a chance to be a swing-and-miss offering moving forward. Nazha complimented his spin with a fastball that climbed up to 84 mph. Mejdrich has a strong, durable, 6-foot-1, 215-pound build and his 70-71 mph curveball featured similar tight, sharp action as Nazha’s. Mejdrich throws his curveball with conviction and arm speed averaging 2375 rpm while running his fastball up to 85.1 mph.
