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.

Undersized at 5-foot-8, 135-pounds with plenty of physical growth still ahead, but shows intriguing two-way ability. On the mound, works with a dynamic delivery and compact arm action that allows him to hide the baseball. Fastball worked 72–75 mph (T76, 1517 avg rpm) with deception, and he pairs it with a sharp 68–70 mph curveball (1607 avg rpm) that creates plenty of swing-and-miss for the age. Competitive presence with the stuff to miss bats despite current size. As a position player, left-handed hitter with a short, on-plane swing. Mechanics are clean, but the bat lacks strength right now (72 max EV / 227’ peak, 63.0 avg). Defensively, shows solid actions at shortstop with a 77 mph arm that stands out as his best current tool, projecting well as he gains strength. Athletically, ran a 7.94 in the 60. Overall, Tameling is a follow for the way the arm works both on the mound and in the field

Matthew Tameling is a 2028 3B/RHP with a smaller 5-foot-7, 135-pound frame and two-way ability. On the mound, he operates with a short, deceptive arm action that hides the ball well behind his body before working to a clean release. His fastball sits 74–75 mph (T76) with some carry, and he shows feel for both a 62–64 mph curveball with gradual shape and a 67–68 mph changeup that kills spin and fades late. Offensively, the left-handed hitter uses a short, level swing from a simple setup, producing a 76 mph max exit velocity and 253-foot peak distance. A 7.95 runner with a 73 mph infield arm, Tameling offers projection as his frame matures and strength develops
