Elite South ID: Statistical Leaders


Matt Payne
Director of Scouting, PBR of NC

PBR of North Carolina hosted the Elite South ID on Friday September 16th at the Tuckaseegee Field of Dreams in Charlotte, NC. The event gave players an opportunity to update their stats and video prior to the Elite South Showcase Tournament over the weekend. The ID featured players from the 2023-2026 Classes.

 The evening began with position players running a laser timed 60 followed by batting practice on the field with Trackman collecting data. After batting practice players went through a defensive evaluation. The night concluded with pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen with Trackman collecting advanced analytics.

Statistical Leaders

 

THE 60 YARD DASH

The 60 was laser timed on a grass surface with Swift Athletic Timing devices.  Players were also timed in the 10 and 30 yard dash, while running the 60.  Look for more information from Swift Athletics in the coming weeks, on these times.

TRACKMAN MAX EXIT VELOCITY (BP)

During BP, TrackMan tracked ball flight off the bat.  One element TrackMan is able to produce is the exit velocity.  Below are the top Exit Velocities produced during live BP.

POSITIONAL VELOCITY – INFIELDERS

Infielders were able to workout at shortstop throwing across the infield, or from 1B throwing to 2B and 3B in the pro-style workout. 

POSITIONAL VELOCITY – OUTFIELDERS

Outfielders worked out from right field, making throws to the plate.  Throws were measured by a radar gun to gauge arm strength.  

CATCHER POP TIMES & POSITIONAL VELOCITY

In the pro-style workout, catchers workout from behind home plate, making multiple throws to 2B, simulating a stolen base attempt.  

TRACKMAN INFO - PITCHER BULLPENS

Pitchers threw a controlled bullpen showcasing their full arsenal of pitches. Velocity and spin rate information was gathered off of the TrackMan. TrackMan analytics are the official analytics and the velocities below were captured by TrackMan.
