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.

Physical: Strong, projectable 6-foot, 150-pound frame. 7.77 runner in the 60YD.
Offensively: RHH. Open, narrow stance, as the hands start tucked into the body. Utilized a leg-hang stride to initiate the swing through a whippy, uphill path towards a higher finish. Some rotational parts from the RH box, able to get the head out for a pull-side approach. Recorded a T84MPH EV, up to an estimated 302FT via Trackman.
Defensively: The third baseman featured developing actions at the hot corner, positioning himself with a flat glove-hand. Was able to change arm-slots; dropped down to the side for a 71MPH INF arm across the dirt.
Pitching: RHP. Started off the center of the rubber. Inverted-W into footstrike with a slower-paced delivery. FB sat in the mid-70’s and varied command, mixing a 67-69MPH SL (short sweep). Added low-70’s CH for strikes; 100% zone rate.
