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.

6-foot-2, 200-pound solid frame. Above average at the plate, Iatonna's 94 mph exit velocity ranks him 1st at the event. Begins in a balanced stance with a compact load, then uses a short stride. Bat speed is above average, displays an upward swing plane and good extension on his finish. He barreled up multiple balls with loud contact. Gap to gap approach. Laterally, his movements were developing. Behind the plate, his best recorded throw to second was clocked at 68 mph; shows average feet, firm hands, and a quick exchange. Had a pop time of 2.25-2.35. Staggered setup with some flexibility. Showed a stiff arm action with some accuracy to the bag. In the 60-yard dash, his time was 7.34.
Hit:Right-handed hitter that starts in a balanced stance. Hands show a back load during controlled stride for timing. All fields in approach in BP with natural ball flight to the middle. Physical dude with serviceable batspeed. Fast rotator.
Power:Gap abilities.
Offensive Projection:Middle ceiling.
Max BP Exit Velocity:80 mph
Max BP Distance: 227 ft
Field: Showed some athleticism behind the dish with the willingness to block and capable receiving abilities. Pop times will improve as arm strength does.
Throw: Developing strength.
Defensive Projection: C.
Scouting Notes:Two-way prospect. Compact arm action through a high-3/4 slot. Drop and drive type guy down the mound. Breaking ball pops out of the hands with slurvish action. Strike thrower for the most part.
Fastball:70-73 mph.
Fastball Spin Rate:1679-1834
Breaking Ball:57-58 mph.
Breaking Ball Spin Rate:1695-1742
2/22/20 Position Player
Hit: Balanced setup from the right side, toe turn timing trigger during backload to hands, hands initiate launch and travel on a mostly level path to contact, compact stroke, balanced natural tools, much more to come from the 2023 as he develops physically.
Power: 84 mph tee exit velocity, flashed gap abilities.
Offensive Projection: TBD.
2/22/20 Pitching
Delivery Notes: Classic “tall and fall delivery”, good direction, long back/high-¾ arm action with a balanced combination of strength and speed.
Fastball: 71-75 mph, mostly true, good feel.
Curveball: 58-59 mph, pops out of the hand, 11/5 shape.
Changeup: 66-67 mph, good sell, natural fading action.
Pitchability: Strike thrower for the most part.
