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

Hit: RHH. Slightly open and tall stance with a simple load and stride A lot of twitch in the swing with quick hand and present bat speed, stays flat and on-plane to contact with slightly uphill extension and a two-handed finish, when on time the ball jumped off his bat, especially to the pull-side 64.5 mph bat speed with 8 G’s of rotational acceleration.
Power: 92 max exit velocity, averaged 84.8 mph. 326' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-89 mph. OF-90 mph. Short and quick AA with a high 3/4 release
Defense: OF: Receives the ball out front and clean off his left foot, stays patient behind it and moves through it aggressively with athletic footwork into his crow hop, really strong arm from the OF, throws were on a line with backspin and carry. IF: Average hands and actions, good athlete still a little raw on the IF, showcased a strong arm across the diamond.
ATH: 6.81 runner in the 60.
