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.

5-foot-11, 155-pound lean frame. Projectable during batting practice, King's best exit velocity was 86 mph. Began in a wide stance with a low load, then used a short stride. Has an uphill swing plane, above average bat speed and high finish. He barreled up some balls during the round. Gap to gap approach. While in the infield, registered his best throw across the diamond at 75 mph; had consistent hands, a natural exchange, and developing footwork. Laterally, his movements were average. Some accuracy to the bag, used a long arm action and a ¾ slot. Recorded a time of 7.2 in the 60-yard dash. Projectable on the mound, had an long arm action and a high ¾ arm angle. Drop-and-drive type pitcher who uses easy effort. Lands square. Produced a fastball that came in at 75-77 mph; had running action and consistent command. Threw his 11/5 curveball (63-63) with gradual action and around the zone control. His changeup (68-68) showed fading action.
