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.

On Sunday, RHP Sam Hays (Munster, IN, 2024) provided an upside look out of the ‘pen for Elite Baseball Training. Listed at a long 6-foot-1, 170-pounds, Hays is a controlled mover on the bump, working in-line to home with a controlled finish. In his outing, Hays ran his fastball up to 85 mph, while sitting in the lower-80s throughout and it spun at over 2,400 RPM on average. His spin traits carried over to his low-70s breaking ball, as that averaged over 2,700 RPM and played with sharp 11/5 action.
