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

INF Hayden Boyd (Seckman, 2024) was one of the top position prospects in Columbia on Sunday. Boyd comfortably fills out a uniform, standing at 6-foot-1, 180-pounds with clear strength, particularly in the lower half. Boyd’s most valuable asset may ultimately be his glove, and he profiles to stick somewhere on the left side of the infield moving forward. He took a clean round of infield defense during his workout and routinely showed our staff crisp actions with the glove in between innings, making a handful of plays throughout the game as well. Boyd paced this event’s infield crop in throwing velocity and he uncorked a few firm throws across the diamond from the six-spot, too. His athleticism translates to the plate, where Boyd got off a few quality hacks from the right side. Boyd’s long-term future with the glove coupled with an upside offensive profile has him trending in the right direction into his junior year.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-2, 180-pounds. Athletic, upside frame.
Delivery: Smooth delivery, slight drop and drive, stays on-line down the mound and lands square.
Arm Action: RH. Short, connected arm action, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T84.7, 81-84 mph. Lively and clean out of the hand, late arm-side life and run. Gets swing and misses up in the zone. T1993, 1782 average rpm.
CB: 65-73 mph. Thrown with intent, tight 11/5 shape and feel. T1780, 1735 average rpm.
SL: 71-72 mph. T1626, 1567 average rpm.
CH: 72-73 mph. Late fade and sink. T1866, 1665 average rpm.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-2, 180-pounds. Athletic, upside frame.
Hits: RHH. Wide setup, slightly crouched, minimal load and stride. Athletic, strong hands, long path, consistently on time and on the barrel; pull-side tendencies.
Power: 92 max exit velocity, averaged 84.2 MPH. 341' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-83 mph.Clean arm, plays from multiple slots.
Defense: Athletic actions, body control on the move, soft hands.
Run: 7.62 runner in the 60.
INF/RHP Hayden Boyd (Seckman, 2024) proved to be one of the day’s more intriguing two-way follows. Boyd really looks the part in a uniform, standing at 6-foot-2, 180-pounds with present strength and room for more. He’s a savvy defender on the infield with swift feet and soft hands to boot, moving comfortably around the turf while covering ground. He’s projectable at the plate with a long right-handed swing, elevating the baseball to the pull-side with a 341 ft. max batted distance. Boyd threw the final two innings for Team Missouri on the mound, pitching at 82-85 mph with a fastball that featured heavy run and sink. His primary secondary pitch appeared to be a 72-73 mph changeup that stayed on fastball plane and worked down in the zone.
