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.

Diffley has a strong and athletic frame at 6-foot, 175-pounds. Ran the 60 yard dash in 7.37 seconds, top exit velocity recorded at 88 MPH. The left-handed hitter starts in a wider and balanced stance with his front foot inverted. Hands begin away from the body, move down and back during his load. Gradual leg kick. Rotational torque, generates force through his back hip. Plenty of line drives throughout his round. In the infield, worked well laterally with quick transfers. Top positional velocity of 78 MPH. On the mound, Diffley has a wide setup right in the middle of the rubber. Works quick with tempo. Hands stay locked in position until he reaches his balance point. Strong backside, rides the slope. Slightly closed at footstrike. FB showed some occasional cut at 77-79 MPH. CH with real depth at 63-64 MPH. CB had 1/7 shape with sweep at 65-66 MPH.
5-foot-10, 145lb athletic frame; 7.55 runner in the 60 yard dash. Straight up stance with movement in the hands. Pushes the hands back in the load, paired with a big leg kick. Slams the front foot down and works a long, uphill swing with good barrel control. Hit line drives to the pull side gap with ease and displayed repeatable swing mechanics yielding an 80 MPH max exit velo.
