83.0
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.
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.
The maximum speed, in the direction of home plate, that the wrist is traveling. Measured in meters per second (m/s)
Arm Slot
Angle of the forearm relative to the ground between maximum external rotation (MER) and ball release (BR). Which can be a powerful player comparison metric, delivered in degrees.
Knee Extension Velo
The angular velocity of the front knee straightening after foot plant, which provides indicators of velocity potential. Measured in degrees per second.
Deception
The amount of time that the ball is visible to the hitter, after the instant of front foot strike. Measures in milliseconds.
Hip-Shoulder Separation
The difference in angle of between the hips and shoulders, occurring close to the foot plant. Measured in degrees.
Standing at 6-foot-2, 185-pounds, Rogers is lean and athletically built with room to add on more strength in the coming years. On the mound, he moves athletically throughout his delivery; working with a smooth tempo into a high athletic leg-lift, coiling slightly into his balance point before pushing off the mound with a drop/drive lower-half, remaining in-line to the plate throughout his stride. His arm works long out of the glove and plays quick to release from a high ¾ slot. His fastball showed above-average carry through the zone with a max IVB of 20, sitting comfortably in the 85-87 mph range throughout his ‘pen with his top being 87.5 mph (T2325 RPM). To pair off his fastball he went to a tight 1/7 breaking ball at 69-71 mph and a late fading changeup at 70-73 mph. Offensively, Rogers showed an intriguing right-handed bat with well above-average bat speed and bat strength as well. Rogers swings with controlled aggression and when the swing syncs up the ball jumps off the barrel with authority. Rogers had the furthest ball off the bat 366’ to go along with a max exit velocity of 96.4 mph.

LHP Chris Rogers (Grayslake Central): The 6-foot-2, 185-pound southpaw impressed with an above-average breaking ball, topping at 75 mph with a spin rate of over 2,200 rpm. His current fastball velocity of 82-84 mph is sure to jump in the coming years, given his long, loose arm action and ability to spin the baseball.
