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.

CB: 66-70 mph. Tight break with some feel. T2026, 1893 average rpm.
Uncommitted. Physically imposing 6-foot-4, 215-pound frame. Came out of the ‘pen for Naz, and showed some intrigue with feel to spin the breaking ball. The southpaw is an easy mover down the mound and ran his fastball up to 80 mph. The breaking ball played in the 69-70 mph range with over 2800 rpm. He worked a scoreless inning and punched out one. A name to continue to monitor in the state’s sophomore class.
Positional Profile: LHP/1B
Body: 6-4, 210-pounds. Physically imposing frame.
Delivery: Hybrid delivery, controlled, tall/fall lower-half.
Arm Action: LH. Short/compact arm action, ¾ slot.
FB: T79, 78-79 mph. Clean out of the hand, plays with sink. T1770, 1646 average rpm.
CB: 68-70 mph. Feel to spin, plays more laterally. 2/8 shape, feel for the zone. T2392, 2347 average rpm.
CH: 68-70 mph. Plays with fade, flashes feel for the zone. T1719, 1526 average rpm.
LHP Eddie Donnelly (Nazareth) is an intriguing arm-to-follow in the state’s incoming sophomore class. A 6-foot-3, 200-pound frame with present strength and projection still to come, Donnelly displayed easy actions down the mound with a compact and clean arm path out of a high ¾ slot. His fastball played with slight running action, while also mixing in a curveball with slurvy actions. He rounded out his three-pitch mix with a mostly straight change-up. Donnelly had a quality outing, tossing 2 innings with three strikeouts, while walking one, allowing one hit and no runs.
Positional Profile: LHP/1B
Body: 6-3, 185-pounds. Trim, athletic look, room to add strength.
Delivery: Balanced leg lift, tall and fall, works in-line, balanced finish.
Arm Action: LH. Shorter out of glove, 3/4 slot.
FB: T78, 76-78 mph. Thrown downhill, arm side run. T1848, 1672 average rpm.
