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.

Positional Profile: RHP/1B RHP…good physical build. Solid delivery and arm action, repeats. Expect velo to take a jump in future. Slider flashes quality action, must firm release point for success. Change shows deception with solid feel. Nice mix, upside present on the mound. RHH/INF solid defensive player/steady. Opportunities for adjustments present for bat/power combo to exceed. Interesting player to watch develop at plate.
Body: 6-1, 180-pounds. Good physical build/frame to add strength in future.
Delivery: Side step rocker, up tempo. Front shoulder opens early at times. Nice job of using lower 1/2.
Arm Action: RH. Full circle, works well with developing arm speed. Solid finish out front.
FB: T82, 81-82 mph. Solid down plane showing tailing action increasing to arm side. Around the plate with FB. T1821, 1747 average rpm.
SL: 72-73 mph. Shows depth to action, must firm release point, backs up occasionally. Flashes quality. T2075, 1944 average rpm.
CH: 74-75 mph. Fade action to change showing avg deception, nice job of maintaining arm speed. Occasionally shows some tail/sink. Good feel for pitch. T1489, 1427 average rpm.
ATH: 7.40 runner in the 60. Runs hard.

Interesting player to watch develop at plate.
Body: 6-1, 180-pounds. Good physical build/frame to add strength in future.
Hit: RHH. Wide base to start, stride creates length between feet after landing. Rotational back foot, opportunity to increase of lower 1/2 back hip use with developing some linear movement forward. Not maximizing lower 1/2 with present approach. Shows good postures to swing. Barrel/hands in solid launch position. Takes solid path to hit zone with barrel/hands. Solid contact. 69.2 mph bat speed with 23 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 97 max exit velocity, averaged 88.7 mph. 345' max distance. Solid bat/power combo with development opportunities present. Lot to like, adjustments will help maximize ability. Upside to bat/power combo.
Arm: RH. INF-78 mph. Arm works well. Can develop ability to throw from all angles in future.
Defense: Feet work well getting to baseball. Hands work well fielding coming off back. When deep fields baseball deep, work to field ball out front with feet moving thru ball.
ATH: 7.40 runner in the 60. Runs hard.
