The athlete's fastest 60-yard dash time in the given event year. Measured in seconds (s)
7.26
Infield Velocity
The athlete's maximum throwing velocity from an infield position in the given event year. Measured in miles per hour (MPH).
84.0
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 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.
Jamie Chipman, Academy (TX), 2027 Positional Profile: RHP/1B RHP…big upside. Delivery can be improved, would like to see throw downhill, taking advantage of height. Will throw hard, expect velo spike at some point. Shows ability to spin baseball, flashing quality action. DNS 3rd pitch. Fun to watch him develop. Body: 6-4, 193-pounds. Long levers with good build/frame to add needed strength. Projects to have good build. Delivery: Old style delivery with high hands rocker step. High knee lift, gets into his back leg in post up position. Long stride, lands beyond midline to plate opening hip early. Lands with soft leg, bent knee. Pitches like he 5'8 instead of 6'4. Would like to see shorter stride, firm front leg, throw downhill. Head puller, opens lead shoulder early at times. Arm Action: RH. Full circle, works well, arm speed will continue to improve as he adds strength. 3/4 slot with solid extension to release, good finish. FB: T89, 81-86 mph. Will continue to add velo, will throw hard. FB with arm side tailing action, tail/sink down at times. Carry up. T2345, 2111 average rpm. CB: 69-72 mph. CB with 11/5, 11/4 tilt. Big, early action, landed occasional solid CB. Upside, shows good spin at times. T2213, 1885 average rpm. ATH: 7.26 runner in the 60. 1.82 and 4.08 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard, will improve with strength.

Jamie Chipman, Academy (TX), 2027 Positional Profile: RHP/1B RHP…big upside. Delivery can be improved, would like to see throw downhill, taking advantage of height. Will throw hard, expect velo spike at some point. Shows ability to spin baseball, flashing quality action. DNS 3rd pitch. Fun to watch him develop. RHH/INF…will add needed strength in future. Solid defender in infield. Opportunities present for adjustments with hit approach and swing. Big upside to bat/power combo with adjustments. Body: 6-4, 193-pounds. Long levers with good build/frame to add needed strength. Projects to have good build. Hit: RHH. Knee lift stride with length, lands hard with drift forward, upper torso occasionally gets out front. Lower stride, keep controlled, land softer keeping weight back. Shows rotational back foot at times, gets stuck not getting fully rotated at times, work to get turned fully each time. Shows linear movement, works well with length created between feet after stride, work to drive foot/back hit forward with consistency. Stops movement at times. Vertical drop with hands and push back away from body creating lead arm bar and length to swing. Work to keep hands up, soften push back movement, working to keep hands closer to body. Best example…think of figure skaters…hands tight spin faster, away slower spin. Same thoughts apply here…slowing swing with hands push away. 78.8 mph bat speed with 20 G's of rotational acceleration. Power: 101 max exit velocity, averaged 90.0 mph. 371' max distance. Upside to projected bat/power combo. Opportunities for adjustments present. Changes will improve contact consistency and ability to impact baseball. Arm: RH. INF-84 mph ATH: 7.26 runner in the 60. 1.82 and 4.08 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard, will improve with strength.
