Team TX Future Games Tryouts: Pitcher Data Dive

June 26, 2026
By: Tyler Defibaugh
Prep Baseball Texas Staff

On Tuesday, June 9th, the PB Texas staff traveled to Texas State University in San Marcos, TX, to host the 2026 Team TX Future Games Tryouts, an invite-only event for the class of 2028.

More than 50 players made their way to Texas State and participated in a pro-style workout, gathering unrivaled access to data through our state-of-the-art tech partners, as well as in-depth scouting analysis from our Prep Baseball Texas staff.

We have already released a Statistical Analysis from the event, highlighting more of the traditional statistical categories, as well as a Quick Hits, highlighting some of the events top performers. We also highlighted some of the top positional players within this Data Dive story.

Today, we will be looking at the top measurable data performers from the event, found below.

4 Parker Legh-Page TX Cypress Ranch 2028 3B 89.2 mph
5 Callen Corley TX Stratford 2028 SS 88.6 mph

SPIN RATE (AVG.)

Rank Name State School Class Pos Spin Rate (avg)
1 Anthony Frausto III TX Davenport 2028 1B 2228 rpm
2 Noah Newton TX Fort Bend Christian Academy 2028 RHP 2219 rpm
3 Trent Costales TX Cornerstone Christian 2028 1B 2208 rpm
4 Casen Cooley TX Katy Freeman High School 2028 1B 2187 rpm
5 Cooper Albart TX Martin 2028 C 2175 rpm

Spin Rate: This metric calculates the rate of spin on the baseball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Historical data shows that high-spin fastballs lessen the impact of gravity, allowing for more ‘rise’ (or less fall, in other words) as it carries through the zone. Low-spin fastballs typically indicate the pitch has greater horizontal action, often making it tougher to square up, but generally easier to make contact with, leading to more ground balls, while high-spin fastballs show a correlation with swings and misses.

INDUCED VERTICAL BREAK (AVG.)

Rank Name State School Class Pos IVB (avg)
1 Callen Corley TX Stratford 2028 SS 18.1 in
2 Casen Cooley TX Katy Freeman High School 2028 1B 18.1 in
3 Christopher Racey TX Ridge Point 2028 1B 17.9 in
4 Ethan Oldfield TX Bishop Lynch 2028 RHP 16.9 in
5 Trent Costales TX Cornerstone Christian 2028 1B 16.6 in

Induced Vertical Break: Used in short form as "IVB," this metric is most important on fastballs for creating rise and on curveballs for creating depth – it can also have some use when measuring sliders and cutters as well. Sliders tend to be closer to zero inches while cutters are generally between 5 and 15 inches. Usually fastballs and curveballs with large IVB have higher spin efficiencies as well. Sliders generally have very little (closer to zero) IVB and very low spin efficiencies. You could also categorize IVB into spin rate as this is part of the “useful movement” you’re looking for. IVB is also a huge part of vertical approach angle.

HORIZONTAL MOVEMENT (AVG.)

Rank Name State School Class Pos HM (avg)
1 Gavin Morris TX Southlake Carroll 2028 OF 13.9
2 Casen Cooley TX Katy Freeman High School 2028 1B -13.6
3 Noah Newton TX Fort Bend Christian Academy 2028 RHP 13.4
4 Tate Moore TX New Braunfels 2028 LHP -12.5
5 Ethan Page TX Kingwood 2028 RHP 11.6

Horizontal Break: Outlined on TrackMan’s own website: “... horizontal movement is measured in inches between where the pitch actually crosses the front of home plate side-wise, and where it would have crossed home plate side-wise if had it traveled in a perfectly straight line from release. A positive number means the break was to the right from the pitcher’s perspective, while a negative number means the break was to the left from the pitcher’s perspective.”
