Pitch Scores
2025
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

Luke Williams, Smithson Valley (TX), 2026
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Great pitchers body, long/lanky, will add strength in future. Solid delivery/arm action. Expect arm speed to increase in future, velo jump coming. Plus FB in future, will throw hard. Shows feel for secondary. Spin present to CB flashing quality action. Change will be solid pitch. Fun pitcher to watch develop. Doesn't have big velo yet, it's coming.
Body: 6-6, 172-pounds. Long, lanky build. Great pitchers frame/body for adding strength. Will develop into good pitchers build in future.
Delivery: Side step rocker, loads into back let well. Cross step stride, does a solid job using lower 1/2 in delivery. Gets over front side well.
Arm Action: RH. Full circle, works well. LTQ slot, good finish out front. Developing arm speed.
FB: T88, 85-88 mph. Expect velo to continue to increase. Tail, tail/sink increasing to arm side. T2402, 2176 average rpm.
CB: 72-72 mph. Shows feel to spin baseball, solid pitch. T2458, 2382 average rpm.
CH: 78-82 mph. Change with turnover fade action, developing feel for pitch. Shows feel for deception. T2116, 1821 average rpm.
