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.

Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
6-foot-1, 225-pound right-handed hitting corner infielder and right-handed pitcher. On the mound, the fastball sat 76-77 mph. The breaking ball was 65-66 mph and big in shape. The changeup was 72-74 mph with minimal fade. The delivery was repeated and the leg lift was small and simple. The feet have some crossfire to them. The bat had an exit velocity of 94 mph. The setup was athletic in stance and hands worked freely. The approach to the baseball in the outfield was under control and he threw 78 mph.
Amir Cartagena: 1B/RHP, (2027) Greater New Bedford Voc Tech, MA. 6-foot-1, 210-pound mature athletic build. Projectable at the plate, the right-handed hitter clocked an exit velocity of 92 mph. (66.0 mph bat speed average). (19.4 mph hand speed average). Began in a balanced wide stance with a controlled load, then used a small stride. Had an uphill loose swing plane, developing bat speed and good extension on his finish. Found lots of barrels with loud contact. Gap to gap aggressive approach. Capable while in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 73 mph; had developing soft hands, developing consistent footwork, and a natural exchange. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were developing. Had consistent accuracy to the base and a high ¾ slot. In the 60-yard dash, he clocked a time of 8.15. Capable on the mound, showing developing arm speed he had a consistent arm action and a high ¾ arm angle. Up-tempo type pitcher who uses some effort. Has on- line shouldesr with a consistent balance point. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Sat with his fastball at 73-74 mph; had running action and control arm side around the zone.
