Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
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.
The athlete's fastest 0-10-yard split time in the given event year. Measured in seconds.

RSI
The reactive strength index measurement of an athlete's explosiveness by comparing their jump height to the ground contact time in between their jumps. On a scale of 0-5.
Vertical Jump
A measure of any athlete's body strength and reach calculated from the flight time divided by the contact time.
The highest Edge Score within the given year. Edge Score is a comprehensive score that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing an assessment of an athlete’s overall visual ability.
INF/RHP Mason McCarthy (Eau Claire Memorial, 2027) is an interesting upside prospect on both the mound and with the bat. Measured at 6-foot, 171 pounds, there is considerably more projection coming to the frame. With the bat, McCarthy showcased a loose and fluid swing from the right side with a downhill path creating backspin through both gaps. In the infield, McCarthy displayed smooth actions to both sides and when fielding a slow roller. On the mound, McCarthy identified himself as an upside arm with how long his frame is and he has a real chance to pop once he fills. He delivered strikes downhill with the fastball in the upper 70s and paired it with a top to bottom curveball and developing feel for a split finger pitch with depth. McCarthy is someone our staff will monitor going forward.
