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.

Carter Crouse is a 2027 C/RHP from Lakeland Jr/Sr High School with a strong lower half and a 6-foot-2, 215-pound frame. Offensively, Crouse is a right-handed hitter with an explosive uphill swing, showing power potential with a 92 mph max exit velocity and a 279' max distance. Defensively, he’s a serviceable backstop with solid blocking and receiving skills, posting pop times between 2.22-2.36 and a 73 mph arm. On the mound, Crouse throws from over the top with an efficient, albeit effort-driven delivery, running his fastball between 73-75 mph (T75), and mixing in a 64-68 mph curveball and 68-71 mph changeup
