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.

Delivery: Solid, controlled tempo. Lots of upside.
Arm Action: RH. Quick arm action with some length.
FB: T89.2, 87.4-88.6 mph. Good life to fastball, can ride the top of the zone well. T2211, 2036 average rpm.
SL: 73.3-74.6 mph. Good pitch and still developing feel. T2179, 2159 average rpm.
CH: 76.3-78.2 mph. Solid action and could be a plus pitch to offset fastball. T2109, 1728 average rpm.
Chase Russell: Madison Central High School, Class of 2024; 6-foot, 185-pound solid frame; 3B/RHP. During batting practice, the left-handed hitters best exit velocity was 81 mph. Setup consisted of balanced stance and a toe tap Has above average bat speed and a flat swing plane, and he ends his swing with a high finish. In the infield, his best throw was recorded at 70 mph across the field; had soft hands and rhythmic feet. Used a loose arm action with an-over-the-top slot. During the event, he clocked a 60 time of 8.57. On the mound, he has an over-the-top arm angle and a long arm action. He is a drop-and-drive type pitcher who uses some effort in his delivery. He showed the most control on his curveball (62-64 mph) when he stayed on top; has some action and consistent accuracy on curveball. His fastball came in at 75-78 mph.
