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-10, 150-pound athletic frame. In the box, the right-handed hitter clocked an exit velocity of 87 mph. Started in a balanced open stance with a small load, then used a short stride just before his swing. Has simple level swing plane and has good extension on his finish. Line drive approach. In the infield, his position velocity was registered at 81 mph; had athletic footwork, consistent hands and a fluid exchange. Showed a loose arm action with a high ¾ slot. Clocked a 60 time of 7.75 at the event. On the mound, sat with his fastball at 73-76 mph with a max of 77 mph. Curveball showed 11/5 bite at 63-64 mph, and flashed a changeup with some armside fade at 70-71 mph.
