Pitch Scores
2023
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.

Physical: 6-2, 215 pounds; Long, sturdy build.
Pitching: Uses a center rubber setup working primarily from the stretch. Belt high leg drive with a slight lean over the belt. Has a long stride landing inline with the plate. Moderate arm swing while arm stays in line with 2B; standard 3/4 slot. Spins off 1B side with finish. FB: Peak velo of 85 MPH, while sitting 81-84 MPH; commands both sides. CB: 70-71 MPH; spots and expands. CH: 72-76 MPH; maintains same plain.
Physical: 6-foot-2, 220 pounds; Long, sturdy build.
Pitching: Uses a center rubber setup while using an angled drop step. Belt high leg drive with shoulders outside the hips. Has a moderate stride landing inline with the plate. Moderate arm swing while showing some scap load; standard 3/4 slot. Square to the plate with finish. FB: Peak velo of 84 MPH, while sitting 82-84 MPH; straight action. CB: 68 MPH; showed depth. CH: 78-82 MPH; runs. Heavier, low RPM FB. CB showed good depth, CH runs well arm side.
Physical: Strong, athletic 6-foot-2, 190lb frame with a starter’s build.
Pitching: RHP - Average to above pace in the delivery with some unwinding downward towards the plate. Not too much extension going on, as he blocks off the front side and the arm whips from a taller release and OTT slot. The FB ranged from 76-78 mph at 1702rpms and countered with a solid upper-60’s curveball. A 72-74 mph CH was his best offering, fading hard off of the FB plane.
Physical: 6-foot-2, 175 pounds; Athletic, broad shouldered build.
Pitching: Bakowski uses a center rubber setup working primarily from the stretch. Belt high leg drive with shoulders above the hips. Has a long stride landing inline with the plate. Short take back while while showing some scap load, while working through a high 3/4 slot. Square to the plate with finish. FB: Peak velo of 78 MPH, while sitting 77-78 MPH; life through the zone. SL: 68-72 MPH; slurve like. CH: 71-74 MPH; fading action.
