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
Parker Bjorklund: C/RHP, (2027) out of Bonny Eagle, ME. is a 5-foot-9, 125-pound two-way prospect. In the box, the right-handed hitter recorded an exit velocity of 77 mph. He starts in a balanced, athletic stance with the hands set just off the back shoulder. He then uses a short stride to initiate a simple, flat swing with good extension. During his rounds, Bjorklund showed the ability to use the whole field and remain balanced. Behind the plate, his throws to second were 68 mph, with a pop time range of 2.18-2.30. The initial set up is calm. The feet are square, the chest is tall and the head is still. As he transitions to throw, he showes sure hands, smooth consistent footwork, and a clean transfer. He also recorded a time of 8.71 in the 60-yard dash. On the mound, Bjorklund used a long, high ¾ arm slot to produce a fastball that sat 72-73 mph (Max spin 2072; Avg 1938) with some arm side run. The delivery is simple. He uses small steps to get into a good position at the top with the shoulders in line. He heads down the mound well and lands square. Bjorklund also flashed a 12/6 curveball (61-63 mph) (Max spin 1985; Avg 1980) and a changeup (61-62 mph) with late fade.
