Max Fastball Velocity: This metric calculates the speed of the pitch as it’s released from the pitcher’s hand.

Spin Rate: This metric calculates the rate of spin on the baseball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Historical data shows that high-spin fastballs lessen the impact of gravity, allowing for more ‘rise’ (or less fall, in other words) as it carries through the zone. Low-spin fastballs typically indicate the pitch has greater horizontal action, often making it tougher to square up, but generally easier to make contact with, leading to more ground balls, while high-spin fastballs show a correlation with swings and misses.


AVERAGE FASTBALL INDUCED VERTICAL BREAK

9 Kingston Ebanks FL Olympia 2027 LHP 15.4 in
10 Ethan DeJesus FL Sumner 2026 RHP 15.3 in

Induced Vertical Break: Outlined on TrackMan's own website: "Distance between the height at which the ball crosses home plate and the height at which it would have crossed if it travelled in a straight line from release and were affected by gravity, reported in inches or centimeters."


AVERAGE FASTBALL HORIZONTAL MOVEMENT

8 Sebastian Prieto FL Jesuit 2026 1B 13.3
9 JD James FL Cardinal Mooney 2027 OF 12.9
10 Bryce Besece FL Jesuit 2027 C 12.4

Horizontal BreakOutlined on TrackMan’s own website: “... horizontal movement is measured in inches between where the pitch actually crosses the front of home plate side-wise, and where it would have crossed home plate side-wise if had it traveled in a perfectly straight line from release. A positive number means the break was to the right from the pitcher’s perspective, while a negative number means the break was to the left from the pitcher’s perspective.”
