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

Physical: Lean, projectable 6-foot, 165lb frame with leverage. 7.70 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Upright, balanced stance, as the hands showed rhythm early. Utilized a short leg-lift stride to initiate the swing through a flat, simple path into the hitting zone. Quick, higher two-handed finish, which created lift at times from gap-to-gap, posting a T83 mph exit velocity via Trackman. Developing extra-base hit approach, up to a 297 foot batted ball distance.
Defensively: The middle infielder played behind the ball in the setup, allowing his length to work through the touch with momentum. A soft glove-hand suctioned inward, releasing from a short H ¾ slot across the dirt (77 mph arm).
Pitching: RHP. Begins off the middle-left side; balanced delivery that flashes drop-and-drive. Firm lead-leg blocks properly, allowing a 73-74 mph FB jump above the belt. Threw strikes (70% zone rate) and added a short mid-60’s CB with a 61-63 mph straight-CH.
