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

Gaven Jones: 1B/RHP, (2025) Jackson, OH. 6-foot-3, 207-pound. Began in an athletic stance with a controlled load, then used a short stride. Had a level swing plane, developing bat speed and balanced finish. Up the middle approach. In the infield, his best throw was recorded at 80 mph. Clocked a 60 time of 7.4 at the event. Projectable on the mound, used a short arm action with an over-the-top arm angle while showing quick arm speed. Tall-and-fall type pitcher and uses some effort. Showed tall balance point with downhill shoulders. Lands square with balanced finish. (Max spin 1887; Avg 1794).
