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
Slider

An uncommitted junior southpaw to know is Carter Kropke (Crystal Lake Central). He has a durable build at 6-foot, 183-pounds, and he was able to move athletically down the mound with a directional and fluid operation. He has a long/loose arm action, playing relatively easy out front to create a fastball in the 81-83 mph range, playing clean out of the hand with life and run through the zone. His slider is a quality offering at 71-72 mph with over 2,300 RPM on average, showing some sweeping action with developing feel. His final offering was a changeup that he could land for strikes with late running action, 77-79 mph.
