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

Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Positional Profile: OF/LHP SH OF/INF will add strength in future, physically projects well. Chance to develop into 7.0 or better runner in future. Verstatility present on defense with ability to play both corner OF spots and 1st base. Moves well around bag at 1st with nice actions. Solid bat/power combo in future. Look for ability to impact baseball to develop. Athletic on the mound, delivery will be firmed. Arm works well, velocity will develop. Shows feel for landing stuff in strike zone. Will throw hard, feel for blended breaking ball present. Change flashes quality. 2 way player, watch develop.
Body: 5-9, 150-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future. Avg width to shoulders and back. Well Propprtioned.
Delivery: 3rd base side start. Side step rocker, knee lift with slight inward turn. Gets to post up on back leg. Stride leg works out and down slope. Lands just past midline to plate with toe open. This delivery opens lead hip early, lead shoulder opens. Close off stride to at lease to online with plate, close toe off. Landing open stride/toe injury risk to shoulder and elbow.
Arm Action: RH. Full circle, works well. H3/4 slot with good finish out front. Works easy, arm speed will continue to develop.
FB: T81, 79-81 mph. Tail, tail/sink to arm side. Around zone with FB. Look for velocity to increase over next couple of years. T1892, 1753 average rpm.
SL: 74-75 mph. Short, blended breaking with solid action. Flahed some developing ability to manipulate pitch. Adding/subtr tilt, lengtthening. T1751, 1744 average rpm.
CH: 72-74 mph. Sink/tail action, will develop into good pitch in future. T1850, 1693 average rpm.
ATH: 7.38 runner in the 60. 1.76 and 4.10 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Nice start, good stride length. Chin up when running. Get chin down with slight lean forward of head. Chance to develop into 7.0 or better runner in future 20.70 max vertical.

Hit: SH. Toe tap stride, lands in good position to hit. Rotational back foot, slides towards 3rd base limiting use of lower 1/2 in swing. Work to drive foot forward to fully engage lower 1/2. Hits into firm front leg, stride foot into ground. Nice job of hitting from ground up. Body lays back at contact, work to get little more upright with body at contact. Great job of using core in swing, continue to develop core increasing rotation acceleration. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Swing works, uphill path created with body laying back at point of contact. Bat/hand speed will develop. 62.3 mph bat speed with 15 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 72.4 mph. 297' max distance. Solid bat/power combo with adjustments. Swing works. Adjusments will firm ability to impact baseball.

Heston Horn, a 2029 LHP/OF/1B from Mount Pleasant, is a fun player to watch. This is the second time we've seen him, and he's a confident kid who does everything well on the field. On the mound, Horn shows a solid arsenal with a fastball up to 80 mph and a changeup he throws with the same arm speed. He also shows feel for spin, and while he needs to get stronger to add power to his pitches, he has a good foundation. At the plate, Horn is a switch hitter with a short, compact swing from both sides. He’s a line drive hitter who stays in the big part of the field. Horn does a lot of things well, and as he matures, it’ll be exciting to see where he starts to excel.
