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.
Buchko stands at a sturdy 6-foot-1, 195-pounds and showcased some good numbers on both sides of the ball. On the mound he's an up-tempo mover who lived 87-88 with a loose arm. His breaking missed to the arm-side, but with some development it should work nicely. At the plate he starts from a balanced setup, simple mover who ran his exit velocity up to 96.4 and a carrying distance of 324 feet. Quality 2026 worth following.

Cooper Buchko is another big riser as of late in the 2025 class. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound RHP sat 84-86 mph with the fastball that had plenty of life on it up in the zone. He does a good job killing vertical break on the changeup, which sat 79-80 mph that he also tunnels well off the fastball. He can spin the slider north of 2400 rpm that has tight downward action. At the dish, Buchko worked in the air to the big part of the field, pairing that with 87 mph outfield velocity. The athletic two-way will be another AHP Academy product to follow throughout the offseason.
