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

Hit:Right-handed hitter that starts in a slightly open stance. Uses a simple load sequence with a high knee to knee leg kick for timing purposes. Swing path is slightly downhill to contact.
Power: Line drive pop
Offensive Projection: Table setter
Field: Good tempo and footwork in his approach to the ball. Ball skills are on par for class.
Throw: Above average arm strength for class, with more to come.
Defensive Projection: Corner OF
Delivery/Scouting Notes: Young arm with a tall frame. Uses a high leg kick to generate his power down the mound. Possesses great extension from a high ¾ arm slot, causing the ball to be deceptive from a velocity standpoint.
Fastball: Mostly true. More velo to come.
Breaking Ball: Flashed a gradual breaking curveball on a 1/7 plane
Changeup: Tunneled like a fastball. Reliable with great speed differential
