Pitch Scores
2025
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
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.

Our staff got an updated look at Lai Hainstock, a 2028 graduate who showcased on both sides of the ball. Standing 5-foot-9, 120-pounds, Lai Hainstock has already gained some height as we've seen him develop this offseason at the Holiday Hitter and Vancouver NYI. At the plate he keeps a little movement going at all times, starting his hands in a low, comfortable position as he works into his load and launch. Lai Hainstock has already made jumps since February, reaching a new peak exit velocity of 77.7 mph and carry distance of 262 feet. Defensively his footwork checks out and should increase with time as he matures, reaching 67 mph across the diamond. On the mound he's a simple operator that uses more upper than lower half in his delivery, but he does so from a clean arm action. Lai Hainstock's lived 71-72 mph with his fastball with almost 20 inches of horizontal movement, complementing it with a 61-62 mph breaking ball (2000+) and a developing changeup at 68-69 mph. We'll keep an eye on Lai Hainstock as he continues to develop through his high school career.
