The reactive strength index measurement of an athlete's explosiveness by comparing their jump height to the ground contact time in between their jumps. On a scale of 0-5.
Vertical Jump
A measure of any athlete's body strength and reach calculated from the flight time divided by the contact time.
5'11, 170 with compact strength and lean frame. Consistent tempo throughout delivery with sound mechanics. Stays tall at leg lift with coil into back hip and front knee driving towards back shoulder. Begins controlled shift down the mound with front hip leading the way and back heel down/grounded. Shoulders stay level at hand break with quiet head posture and eyes on the target. Consistent direction towards catcher with some length in his stride. Arm action works quickly after hand break, staying compact as he gets into 3/4 release. Strong, aggressive finish out front. Braces up against front side and allows back hip to come thru as he finishes delivery. FB has life/carry into the zone at up to 87 mph. Holds velo well due to overall strength and athleticism. Shows feel for both CB and SL as well as the ability to work in a heavy, fading CH.
