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.

Deacon continues to trend upward, showing strong progression over the past year. At 6-foot-3, 185-pounds, it’s a long, projectable frame with present strength and room to fill out further. The left-handed hitting Bearcats product worked up to a peak exit velocity of 92.3 mph (avg. 88.7), with a leveraged swing that generated hard contact to all fields. Worked for a hard hit percentage of 60%, one of the stronger marks on the day. Athletic mover for his size who should be able to stick on the left side with continued strength gains. The length and projection value make Deacon a potential steal for Canadian programs in the future.
