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
Slider
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Slider
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+

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.
6-foot, 158-pound lean frame with long levers. At the plate, Richardson started in a tall stance with upright posture and an open lower half. Initiates swing with a low hand load, that creates stretch against his leg lift. Low hand position creates a flat swing plane and a level finish. Mostly pull-side approach during BP. Stays tall in lower half with a 2-handed finish. Defensively, takes long and ranging strides in the OF. Consistent hands as he funnels ball in, receiving out front of his glove-side leg. Clean exchange into throwing motion. Footwork and actions should develop as frame matures. Consistent accuracy to the bag on throws from a long arm action and ¾ slot. On the mound, showed a high ¾ arm angle with a compact arm action. Tightens up arm path compared to when he is in the OF. Showed easy, sustainable effort in his delivery. Tall balance point with flat shoulders. Lands closed before holding his finish in a balanced position. Extends over front side with upper half at release. Commanded FB around the zone and stayed behind the ball consistently. CB/CH combination for his secondary pitches. CB has 11/5 shape when throw at its best with gradual break. Developing CH that fades best when located to his arm side.
