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

Traveling all the way to Evansville from Western Pennsylvania, '28 RHP Christian King made a loud announcement in his bullpen, trending nicely since my look on him at the ABC in early-July. The 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame has matured in a notable fashion with a broader, more-physical look than I saw at Grand Park this summer. This translated directly to louder stuff, as the projectable right-hander consistently sat in the 86-87 range during his bullpen while topping out at a rounded 88 mph on a heater that averaged 16-plus inches of IVB. He tossed a mid-70s slider that grades above average for the age presently, spinning into the 2200s at times, and there are easy refinements that could tick it up a grade quickly. He also showed a very well-shaped kick-change that played in a similiar velocity range to the slider, another offering that is well above average for the grade. Likely to tick even further before next summer, King joins a talented staff on this '28 Black Label team that will likely be one of the more talented groups roaming the Midwest next summer at the 16u level.
