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 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.
Physical: Powerful 6-foot, 190lb frame with two way feel. 7.88 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH - Even, upright stance, as the hands operated lower to start under the shoulder. Utilized a leg hang stride to initiate the swing through a violent, slightly uphill path with eye popping rotational acceleration. One-handed whippy finish on the backside, as the bat-speed flashed at the front of the plate. Recorded a T93 mph bat-exit velocity and posted a 335 foot distance on his best blast. Peppered the pull-side gap with loft in the approach and stayed connected to the ground.
Defensively: The third baseman made the full array of plays, handling himself with composure on the run. Bent down in the lower half with good posture and showed off pace across the diamond from a ¾ slot (86 mph arm, accurate). Gives confidence that he can handle either corner position down the road.
Pitching: RHP - THe righty begins from the middle of the rubber; lots of loose pace, repeats. High tempo down the slope, as the FB held 83-84 mph, arm-side run. Mixed a hard-sweeping 70-71 mph SL for swing/miss and diving 74-76 mph CH that showed flashes.
8/24/21
Physical: 6-foot-0, 180 pounds; Broad shouldered, athletic build. 7.72 runner in the 60. Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet shoulder width apart; upright bat position. Loads straight back with an exaggerated leg kick for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a direct swing path with a one-handed finish. More line drives than flyballs and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 89 MPH via Trackman. Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; walks into ready position while quick first step. Hands are out in front with a clean transfer. Short take back from a standard 3/4 arm slot. INF - 75/79 MPH. At first base, Richardson uses his athleticism to his advantage and bounces off the bag quickly and fields out in front. Maintains a short arm action and throws from a low to standard 3/4 slot. Pitching: Richardson uses a center rubber setup while using a side step. Belt high leg drive with a slight lean over the belt. Has aLong stride landing inline with the plate. Moderate arm swing that is effortless with fluidity, while working through a standard 3/4 slot. Recoils with finish. FB: Peak velo of 83 MPH, while sitting 80-82 MPH; commands both sides. CB: 69-71 MPH; showed depth. CH: 72-74 MPH; fading action.
