Rising Stars Fall Showcase: Statistical Leaderboards


PBR Mississippi Staff

Pearl, MS - The Rising Stars Fall Showcase was held on Saturday, October 15th at Trustmark Park in Pearl, MS. This event consisted of prospects from the 2027-2028 classes. These players went through a pro-style workout and took batting practice using Trackman to record hitting metrics. Pitchers were able to throw during a bullpen setting and were able to get numbers and metrics off of our Trackman unit, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing.

Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look back at some of the leaders from each statistical category recorded from the showcase. Please continue to check back over the next week, as we will release individual scouting reports on each player present at the event.
