VERY interesting topic, I have some questions:
1. You can expect a growing HS kid to gain a bit on velocity just due to natural growth. Does the spin rate change as well with growth?
2. 2200-2300 is not good according to PG, does that apply to a breaking ball as well as a fastball?
3. How do you get trackman to tell you WHEN it recorded the spin rate data?

CaCO, there is something called a Bauer unit, which normalizes spin rate, taking velocity into account (faster pitches will generally have more spin): www.drivelinebaseball.com/2017...ts-pitch-comparison/
