Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
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
Braxton Platt: RHP/3B, (2023) Unioto, OH. 6-foot, 180-pound athletic frame. In the box, Platt had an exit velocity of 84 mph. Begins in a balanced stance with a smooth quick load, then uses a controlled stride. Bat speed is above average and displays an upward swing plane. On the mound, showing consistent arm speed he used a ¾ arm angle and a consistent arm action. Drop-and-drive type pitcher who uses easy effort. Athletic balance point. Threw his fastball 70-73 mph; shows running action and arm side control. Threw a 11/5 curveball (52-57) with gradual action. Shows arm side control and fading action on his changeup (64-65).
8/1/18 RHP Braxton Platt started on the mound for Team Ohio. Impressed with ability to mix both primary offerings in all counts. Fastball comes out of a ¾ slot giving natural run arm side at 69-71. Loose arm that projects for more velocity. Breaking ball is a quality offering that he throws with confidence. 11/5 breaker with late dive 59-62 mph. Will use it to get ahead, put away, and chase pitch.
