Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
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.
The highest Edge Score within the given year. Edge Score is a comprehensive score that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing an assessment of an athlete’s overall visual ability.
- I really like the upside in '28 SS/RHP Drew Dalton (Decatur Central). He is a long-limbed, 6-foot, 170 pound infielder that ran a 7.09. I like him best at the dish were he shows a loose, whippy, right-handed swing with some twitch already present. His exits reached 93 and he showed the ability to leverage with a more direct path. He moved well in the infield with sure hands to pair with developing footwork. His arm works - into the low-80s across the diamond and on the mound. He's a good mover in total with projection in the frame - strength gains will pay dividends to the overall toolset.

Tendency to land closed. Arm Action: RH. Short, quick arm action from an over the top slot. FB: T80, 77-80 mph. Straight FB. T1881, 1801 average rpm. CB: 68-69 mph. Small, gradual movement. Profiles as SL. T1958, 1889 average rpm. CH: 68-70 mph. Straight CH. T1385, 1336 average rpm. ATH: 7.22 runner in the 60.

DREW DALTON, Decatur Central High School (IN), 2028 Positional Profile: SS/RHP Body: 5-11, 155-pounds. Lean build on a projectable frame. Hit: RHH. Balanced weight distribution with a rather wide setup in lower half. Minimal load into drive leg with a toe-tap timing mechanism a miniscule stride. Lower half starts off with separation leading to minimal movement needed to be effective in swing mechanics. Hands work back slightly in time with load. Head stays steady. Hands are quick to the ball with torque in the upper half. Looks to lift the ball. Power: 84 max exit velocity, averaged 73.8 mph. 316' max distance. Arm: RH. INF-75 mph. Short, loose arm action from a 3/4 slot. Defense: Feet move quickly with obvious confidence in the hands. Developed ball to hand skills. ATH: 7.22 runner in the 60.
