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.

2026 BC Preseason Invitational
Dylan Bird, Abbotsford Cardinals, 2027 Uncommitted
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-1, 190-pounds.
Hit: RHH. 100% Sweet Spot%, 25% Line Drive%, 50% Flyball%.
Power: 95.0mph max exit velocity, averaged 80.6mph. 222ft max distance, averaged 190ft. 25% Hard Hit%.
Arm: RH. INF - 80mph.
ATH: 4.23 runner in the 30-yard, 1.78 10-yard split.
Pitching: RHP. FB 83-85mph T86 (57% Strike%), CB 68-69mph (40% Strike%), CH 76-78mph (67% Strike%).
Bird is an interesting right-hander out of the Cloverdale Rangers program, who with some added refinement has a chance to be a quality arm. Checking in at 6-foot-1, 190-pounds, the 2027 graduate has good balance throughout his delivery and a repeatable arm action. The fastball comes out of his hand nicely at 81.1-83.3, topping out at 84 mph with 22 inches of horizontal movement, while also mixing in a curveball that has shape at 68-70 mph (2200+) and a 75 mph changeup that 19 inches of negative movement. With time on his side, it'll be interesting to see how Bird develops as he adds some size over the next couple of years.
Bird caught the eyes of our staff with a projectable body at 5-foot-11, 170-pounds with the ability to throw multiple pitches with plus movement. His curveball and changeup are both potential strikeout pitches, as they generate OZ chase and swing & miss. On the mound Bird’s delivery was smooth and was able to feel the zone with his FB/CB/CH arsenal. Pitching was Bird’s best shown skillset at this event, but smooth hands and a good arm make him a solid shortstop in BCs 2027 class. At the dish Bird has a quiet swing and showed adjustability in the swing and bat-to-ball ability. Bird is an arm to keep in eyes on as he grows in size going forward and begins to face higher levels in competition.
