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.

Uncommitted. Fresh off a state title appearance. Espinoza was a key producer on both sides for a scrappy Grayson squad that made a hard-fought run at the 7A state title. Espinoza stayed hot on the first weekend of the summer. Collecting 3 knocks on Tuesday of the State Games. Espinoza shows an advanced approach at the plate with a keen eye. In sync and rhythm describe the swing as he is on time with everything. Espinoza matches plane at an exemplary rate and works up the middle of the field. An athletic defender that can play anywhere on the diamond at an elevated level, also had a web gem on Tuesday. The uncommitted junior looks to continue his torrid pace from the spring and the first weekend of the summer.
Uncommitted. 5-foot-10, 145 pounds. When watching Espinoza, you can’t help but get pure hitter vibes. It’s a business-like all fields approach who covers the entire hitting zone with ease. After seeing him spit on multiple breaking balls and working 2 QAB’s vs one of the most explosive arms in the ‘24 class, it was as good of a first look you could hope for in a player. His laser to right center was what I would consider a perfect barrel, right on the sweet spot with an incredible amount of backspin and carry. What stood out most about him at the plate was the focus, efficient swing mechanics, ease of effort, and body control well before reaching his eventual physical ceiling. He wasn’t fazed at all by being attacked with 90 mph FB’s or an advanced CB. With Grayson having a history of impressive peloteros, it was very exciting to see multiple players in the lineup of Hispanic descent. I was actually the agent of former Grayson SS Oscar Serratos, a 14th Rd pick by the Guardians in the 2017 draft who was offered a slot bonus in the 4th Rd. So I see something special in Espinoza as a player and hope he gets those same type of opportunities. Right now, the feeling is that Alex will develop into a D1 bat and all he’s missing to be a priority player is physical strength. He has plenty of bat speed, run, and arm strength to play multiple IF positions at only 145 pounds, imagine how much louder those tools would be at a lean 155-160. Fortunately he’s an underclassmen, and there’s still plenty of time recruiting wise to take his game to the next level. But most importantly, he has all the skills and intangibles that make him a good baseball player before reaching his physical ceiling.
