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

5-foot-10, 180-pound sturdy frame. Offensively, sets up in a closed, wide stance with front side and lower half aligned to pitcher. Uses a long stride in his lower half during forward move but stays balanced throughout and controls his weight shift. Limited movement with his hands allows him to work into the zone early and get depth with his barrel. Full, uphill swing plane into a high finish after contact. Barreled up some balls with loud contact up the middle, showing a line drive approach. Consistent showing defensively in the infield. Reliable hands with steady tempo in his footwork and a glove tap exchange for rhythm after he funnels the ball in. Compact arm action with a high ¾ slot and accuracy to the bag on all of his throws. Also posted a strong time in the 60 with a 7.04 on grass. Confidence translates well to the mound, where he works with an aggressive tempo and quick pace. Mechanically sound actions with slight pause at hand break before an aggressive finish out front at release. Long, full arm path with continuous action. Shoulders stay level at balance and he keeps eyes on target. Lands square with a clean finish. Throws a heavy FB that peaked at 85 on this look. Keeps it around the zone consistently. Also mixed in his 11/5 curveball with gradual shape. Throws an above average CH at 70-72 that shows consistent command and fading action.
