Pitch Scores
2024
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.

RHP Traxton Roberts (Armstrong, 2027) continues to impress with each watch. A standout at this event a year prior, Roberts’ stuff has clearly made a jump. Standing at a long-levered 6-foot-1, 175-pounds, he is a controlled mover down the mound paired with a noticeably quick arm. His fastball sat 86-88 mph on this day for strikes with carry (avg. 17.6” IVB), and an average spin rate of 2316 rpm (T2379). His curveball (avg. 2310 rpm) sat 71-75 mph with sweeping-action for strikes 60% of the time. His 76-78 mph changeup flashed as well with an average of 17.6” HM. A must-know name for the spring.
Positional Profile: RHP/3B
Body: 6-1, 175-pounds. High-waisted frame with room to add.
Delivery: Simple/controlled delivery, medium leg kick into balance point, tall/fall lower-half.
Arm Action: RH. Longer, loose arm action, high ¾ slot.
FB: T88, 86-87 mph. Life through the zone, firm out of the hand, above-average spin at times. T2379, 2316 average rpm.
CB: 71-75 mph. 11/5 action with depth. T2411, 2310 average rpm.
CH: 76-78 mph. Late tumbling action. T1986, 1888 average rpm.
RHP Traxton Roberts (Armstrong, 2027) is an arm to know from Central Illinois. The projectable 6-foot-1, 175-pound righty worked his fastball up to 86 mph, which was good for the top fastball velocity from any 2027 arm in attendance. Roberts also featured a 68-71 mph splitter that killed spin and played with sink.
