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

6-2, 190-pound mid-80s right-hander with a mid-70s slider and a feel for a changeup.
6-foot-2, 200-pound right-handed pitcher. The arm is clean, slightly above 3/4 in slot and the tempo of the delivery is solid. The feet have a bit of crossfire to them. The arm is short in path and he repeats. The fastball sat 84-85 mph and was straight. The spin pitch is wide in shape, needs more fastball hand speed to it, sitting 73-74. He did throw a couple shorter spin pitches, which were the best I have seen from him. The changeup is 73-75 mph and straight, the pitch needs a spin fix and fade action to it. I do think there is a huge upside to this arm, it is clean, quick and works well. The pitches are above average at this age, just need a few small tweaks.
James Gibbons: RHP/SS, (2026) Roxbury Latin, MA. 6-foot-2, 202-pound projectable athletic frame. Above average and projectable on the mound, had a high ¾ arm angle and a consistent loose arm action with above average arm speed. Feel type pitcher who shows some effort. He has in line shoulders with a consistent balance point. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Threw his fastball 85-86 mph; has running sinking action and control in the zone. (Max spin 1906; Avg 1703). Had sweeping action and glove side sporadic control on his curveball (71-72). (Max spin 2128; Avg 2066). Throws a sharp changeup (78-79) with gradual fading action and arm side down in the zone command.
