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
Curveball
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Curveball
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.

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: C/RHP A small town kid who has really improved his game as he's been filling out and maturing. The LHH bat behind the plate is a commodity and the catch/throw skills have really jumped
Body: 5-11, 180-pounds. Well prop with a chance to be strong with strong gym work. Base it's there to add another 10-15 Lbs of lean muscle
Hit: LHH. Crouched bent over the plate and gets to near separation and should really stretch out the rubber band. Slightly uphill LD contact bat that has had some swing and miss in his past. The swing looks more efficient than last look 69.7 mph bat speed with 12 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 92 max exit velocity, averaged 86.2 mph. 343' max distance. Lacks HR power and the strength needed and to impact the baseball to and through the gaps is more to his potential
Arm: RH. C-77 mph. INF-79 mph.
Defense: 1.96-2.01 pop times. Has come a long way and is getting his body to receive and be quiet with strong throws has made improvements
ATH: 7.70 runner in the 60. Runs like a catcher and should look to loosen up the hips not on for his base running, but the added benefit side to side as a catcher
Vizual Edge: 63.95 Edge Score
