EVOLUTION TRAINING ASSESSMENT
PLAYER SCOUTING REPORT: MASON
Date: 8/2/26
Location: Evolution Lab
Primary Position: RHP
Session Focus: Mechanics + Fastball Command + Introducing Cutter

OVERVIEW
Really, really good session for Mason today. A lot of the focus was on the mound with an emphasis on finish positioning and thoracic rotation. Velo up to 65-66 MPH while working new shapes. Biggest win: fastball strike % up 15-20% and better feel/spin. We also started introducing a cutter and working on pitch overlay with fastball/off-speed. He hasn’t had many mound opportunities this past year, but development has him set up to eat innings this season and take a big step next year.

PITCHING ASSESSMENT

Bullpen Metrics
Velo: 65-66 MPH
Fastball Command: Strike % up 15-20%
New Pitch: Cutter - early feel work

What Stood Out
Finish & Stacking: Primary focus. Better positioning as he finishes. Learning to stabilize and stack as he coils into thoracic rotation. Direction and posture improved.
Fastball Efficiency: Easier time staying on top of the seam. Spinning it more efficiently = better shape and command.
Command Jump: Strike percentage up 15-20%. That’s a direct result of mechanical tightening.
Pitch Mix Development: Started working a cutter and overlaying fastball/off-speed shapes. Beginning to build feel for moving pitches in/out to batters.

Current Strengths
Coachability: Applies mechanical adjustments right away
Spin Efficiency: Getting on top of the ball better, cleaner spin
Athletic Coiling: Starting to use thoracic rotation to create power without flying open
Workload Capacity: Built up to handle more innings this season

Key Development Focus: Mechanical Consistency + Secondary Shapes
Finish Position: Continue to stabilize and stack through release. Don’t leak out of thoracic coil.
Pitchability: Now that fastball command is trending up, expand to cutter feel and better fastball/off-speed overlay to move ball in/out.
Feel: Keep developing touch for secondary so he can set up hitters, not just throw strikes.

Development Plan
Mechanical Reps 2x/week: Finish/stack drills, thoracic coil work, back knee post for direction
Command Block: Fastball to both sides of plate with intent. Goal: maintain +15-20% strike gain
Secondary Work: Cutter grip/feel, tunneling with fastball. Focus on same arm speed, different shape
Cues: “Stack and finish” // “Thoracic coil” // “On top of it” // “Same arm, different pitch”

OVERALL SUMMARY
Mason had a great day on the mound. Velo at 65-66 while tightening mechanics is huge. The 15-20% jump in fastball strikes and better spin efficiency shows the work is sticking.

We’re at the point now where we can start layering in secondary stuff like the cutter and work on pitch overlay to attack hitters in/out. With limited mound time last year, this development sets him up to eat innings this season and put him in a position to perform at a much higher level next year.

Trend is strongly up. Excited for what’s next.

Coach’s Note:
Proud of you Mason. You’re doing exactly what we asked — tightening up, stacking better, and trusting the process. Keep stacking good mound days and the innings + results will follow. Can’t wait to get back to work.

EVOLUTION TRAINING ASSESSMENT
PLAYER SCOUTING REPORT: BOE
Date: 8/2/26
Location: Evolution Lab
Primary Focus: Short Angles + Barrel Path + Core Engagement

OVERVIEW
Best front toss session we’ve ever had with Boe. Major progress in short angles, barrel path, and core engagement. When he stayed loose and let the body work, he created much better angles to contact. Exit velo peaked at 54-55 MPH to the backside while making these adjustments. Mechanics are trending the right way.

OFFENSIVE ASSESSMENT

Session Focus
Primary: Short angles with extremities. Eliminate arm barring with upper body
Secondary: Barrel path - keep barrel above head, not wrapping behind
Result: Big jump in understanding during front toss

What Stood Out
Short Angles: Key focus today. Cutting out length and arm bar. When he kept angles tight he got to the ball faster and cleaner.
Rotational Assessment Off Tee: Started to see progress here. Foundation work transferred.
Front Toss Breakthrough: This is where it clicked. As he stayed looser he was able to engage his core more and create better angles to contact. Ball coming at him, he was more extensive through contact.
Results: Up to 54-55 MPH exit velo to the backside. Best front toss day to date.

Current Strengths
Adjustability: Applies cues and it shows up immediately in front toss
Core Engagement: When loose, core fires and adds power without tension
Intent Through Contact: More extension through the ball vs. pulling off
Work Ethic: Locked in and making real mechanical progress

Key Development Focus: Barrel Path Consistency
Still cleaning up 2 things:
Barrel Above Head: Keep barrel above head at load/launch. Avoid wrapping behind.
Barrel Angles: Continue to work short angles so he’s not getting long or arm barring with upper body.

Development Plan
Short Angle Drills: 2x/week. Wall constraint, high tee, and inside pitch work to keep hands tight
Core Sequencing: Med ball rotational throws + loose front toss to feel core lead arms
Barrel Path: Tee work with “above the head” checkpoint + high front toss
Cues: “Short to it” // “Stay loose, core first” // “Barrel above, not behind”

OVERALL SUMMARY
This was Boe’s best session yet in front toss. The shift to short angles and not arm barring unlocked everything. Once he stayed loose, the core engaged and the barrel got to better angles. That’s why we saw 54-55 MPH EV to the backside.

Still dialing in barrel position — keeping it above the head and not wrapping. But the trend is clear: he’s making progress and he’s absolutely on the right path.

Excited for next session.

Coach’s Note:
Proud of you Boe. You trusted the adjustments and it paid off. Keep the angles short, keep the barrel above, and let the core do the work. Power is coming.

Brotherly love!!!! Boe Balled out today during his hour session! We had to hook up the whole family with Slushees!! You ...

EVOLUTION TRAINING ASSESSMENT
PLAYER SCOUTING REPORT: EJ
Date: 8/2/26
Location: Evolution Lab
Primary Position: RHP
Session Focus: Bullpen + Lower Half Stabilization

OVERVIEW
Great to get EJ back on the mound today. This was a pitching-focused bullpen day and it was exciting to see him back in action. The main emphasis was stabilization with the back knee to clean up direction and sequencing. Velo sat low 70s while we worked mechanics. Big step forward in body control.

PITCHING ASSESSMENT

Bullpen Metrics
Velo: Low 70s
Focus: Command + Mechanical efficiency over max intent

What Stood Out
Back Knee Stabilization: Primary focus today. Working to keep him from drifting/throwing across his body. When the back knee stabilized, direction and posture improved immediately.
Arm Lead: Cutting down on leading with the arm. Goal is to let the lower half and trunk fire first, then deliver the arm.
Finish: As he finishes, we want to see him stay stacked over that stabilized back side instead of flying open. When he does, command and life improve.

Current Strengths
Athleticism: Moves well on the mound. Easy mover.
Arm Speed: Low 70s sitting while working on mechanics = more velo in tank once sequencing cleans up
Coachability: Buys into the mechanical focus and applies it rep to rep
Feel: Can feel when he’s across his body vs. when he’s stacked

Key Development Focus: Lower Half Direction
Right now the priority isn’t max velo — it’s stabilizing the back knee so he’s not throwing across his body.

Plan:
Stability: Own the back knee as a post. Don’t drift, don’t rotate early.
Direction: Throw through the catcher, not across him. Keeps arm path clean.
Sequencing: Lower half and trunk lead, arm follows. Stop leading with the arm.

Development Plan
Bullpen + Drills 2x/week: Wall drill, back knee post drill, towel drill for finish
Constraint Work: Pitch with a line or with restricted stride to force staying closed
Cues: “Post the back knee” // “Throw through it” // “Hips then arm”
Next Step: Once stabilization is consistent, we layer intent back in and let velo climb

OVERALL SUMMARY
Really exciting to have EJ back on the mound. Sitting low 70s while making mechanical adjustments is a win.

The big takeaway today: back knee stability = better direction = better finish. When he stops throwing across his body and stops leading with his arm, everything will click. The arm talent is there. Now we’re building the foundation under it.

Trend is up. Can’t wait to see the next bullpen.

Coach’s Note:
Proud of the work EJ. You attacked the mechanical focus today. Keep trusting that back knee and finishing stacked. The velo jump is coming right behind it.
