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.

Body: 6-foot-3, 160 pounds. Long, slender frame. Athletic with some twitch. Long limbed with a ton of room to add size and strength. Projectable build with development that should reflect is increase physicality.
Delivery: Tall, narrow set up. Mid rubber. Quick, efficient delivery. High peaking leg kick with slight coil. Extended, on line stride. Exaggerated extension after release. Balanced finished with some tendency to fall forward/3B side.
Arm Action: Long, loose arm action. High 3/4 arm slot. Does tend to shorten up on secondary pitches. Arm action projects, especially as he adds velocity.
FB: Max 81 mph. Sat 78-80 mph. Avg. Spin Rate - 1758 RPM. Produces some ASR and downhill action. Located in the zone.
CB: 65-69 mph. Avg. Spin Rate - 2043 RPM. Good shape that works well off his FB. Kept it down in the zone.
CH: 69-72 mph. Avg. Spin Rate - 1729 RPM. Some sink and fade. Slight slows up his arm. Does show feel for the pitch. Potential above average pitch as he continues to gain feel.
SL: 64-67 mph. Avg. Spin Rate - 2083 RPM. Some sweeping action. Comes out on the same plane as his FB. Could be potential plus pitch down the road.
