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
Slider
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Slider
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.

Jacob Paluczak: RHP/OF, (2025) North Royalton, OH. 6-foot, 160-pound athletic projectable build. (66.9 mph bat speed average). (19.0 mph hand speed average). Begins in an open stance with a quick load, then uses a leg kick. Had a long swing plane, above average bat speed and good extension on his finish. Barreled up multiple balls with some loud contact. Gap to gap approach. Confident on the mound, used a high ¾ arm angle and a loose clean arm action while showing consistent arm speed. Stretch only type pitcher and uses easy effort. Showed strong balance point with in line shoulders. Lands soft with a clean finish. (Max spin 2232; Avg 2086).
