The reactive strength index measurement of an athlete's explosiveness by comparing their jump height to the ground contact time in between their jumps. On a scale of 0-5.
Vertical Jump
A measure of any athlete's body strength and reach calculated from the flight time divided by the contact time.
A switch-hitting backstop, C Chase Robertson (Galena, 2024) displayed above-average bat strength from both sides of the plate during BP. Built physically at 6-foot-1, 205-pounds, Robertson sent at least one ball more than 315 ft. with both of his swings, including a 334 ft. peak right-handed. He swung with an intent to elevate from both sides, tracking an uphill barrel through the zone with extension through contact.

Positional Profile: C Body: 6-1, 205-pounds. Hits: SH. Tall stance, narrow base, smooth bat wrap load, leg kick trigger to a short stride. Similar setup and operation from the left side. Aggressive and intentful. Long and uphill bat path, creates extension through contact and looks to elevate. Gap-to-gap approach, middle-of-the-order type bat. Generated some of the day's furthest batted balls. Power: 90 max exit velocity, averaged 79.2 MPH. 334' max distance. Arm: RH. C-74 mph. Short arm action, over-the-top slot. Defense: 2.06-2.15 pop times. Square blocker, chests up the baseball. Works gloveside from the crouch, lower half lines up to target, steady transfer to release.
