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.

C Jacob DeVinney (Lane Tech, IL; 2026) was one of the biggest winners of the day on Sunday. An athletic backstop with upside, DeVinney measured a wiry and projectable 6-foot-2, 170 pounds. He started off his day by hitting rockets to all fields from an efficient and aggressive bat path through the baseball. His 94 mph max exit velocity was second best on the day and he hit the furthest ball of the day at 340 feet. Behind the plate, the backstop showcased polish and refined skills for the position. His 1.97 pop time to second base was the quickest of the event and his throws were consistently on the base. The junior will continue to get stronger which indicates that exit velocities and power numbers will continue to climb. DeVinney also threw solid strikes on the mound and could serve to get some useful innings, but our staff envisions him as a solid college catching prospect at this point in his career. DeVinney has established himself as a name to follow in Illinois going into the spring season after his performance on Sunday.
