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.

Carter Harcek: RHP/3B, (2027) Dow High School, MI. 6-foot, 165-pound. (61.4 mph bat speed average). (18.2 mph hand speed average). Started in a narrow tall stance with a controlled slow load, then used a short open stride. Had an upward swing plane, above average bat speed and high back foot finish. He found lots of barrels with loud contact. Opposite field approach. In the infield, recorded a position velocity of 72 mph. Solid on the mound, used a high ¾ arm angle and a moderate quick arm action while showing good arm speed. Tall-and-fall type pitcher and shows some effort. Tall balance point with even shoulders. Lands square with recoil upright finish. (Max spin 1908; Avg 1839).
