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

James Siegler, Highland Park (TX), 2028
Positional Profile: 3B/1B RHH/INF Projects well physically for strength. Run time will firm some. Developing actions on the infield, corner infielder. Raw arm strength will develop. Solid bat/power combo projected with upside to both. Good looking hitter developing. Watch progress.
Body: 6-0, 189-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength, projects well physically.
Hit: RHH. Rotational back foot, drive back foot forward into ball of foot, fully engaging lower 1/2. Hits into firm front leg, body laid back at contact. Develop upright posture at contact allowing lower 1/2 to work. Stride foot stays into ground. Further develop core strength with rotational exercises to increase rotational acceleration. Solid using core now, can be firmed. With stride hands sink to armpit away from body hindering bat speed. Work to get hands closer to body to increase hand speed. Think figure skaters, hands in, faster spin, hands away slower spin. Swing works fine now, opportunity to improve. 70.4 mph bat speed with 20 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 102 max exit velocity, averaged 94.0 mph. 375' max distance. Solid bat/power combo. Impact can be firmed with adjustments.
Arm: RH. INF-79 mph. Arm works fine, low elbow push at times causing miss up line. Setting feet with left foot in front with allow body improved direction to 1st. Replacing left with rigth foot will help create momentum to. See with avg arm.
Defense: Feet work well getting to baseball and breaking down to field. Get left foot in front of right when possible, widen feet some when fielding. Fields baseball deep, work to field baseball out front. Play thru baseball with feet.
ATH: 7.46 runner in the 60. 1.76 and 4.15 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Hard runner, solid stride length and run form. Speed will firm some in future. 21.10 max vertical.
