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.

Connor Buck, a 2028 RHP from Charlestown Senior High School (IN), stands out with big upside thanks to his wiry, 6-foot, 150-pound projectable frame and advanced ability to spin the baseball. His delivery features a taller lift into a raw but twitchy drop-and-drive move, showing glimpses of athleticism. He works from a loose ¾ arm slot, topping at 79 mph with his fastball (2248 avg rpm), which carries heavy arm-side life. Buck’s calling card is his breaking ball—a 66-67 mph curveball that spins at an elite 2742 rpm, showing advanced feel and sharp shape. He also mixes a 72-73 mph changeup (1887 avg rpm) with some fade. High-ceiling arm with spin traits to monitor closely.
