Prep Baseball Report

On Deck O's Scout Day - Top Statistical Performers


Brandon Hall
Executive Director, PBR NC

PBR Scout Days allow North Carolina teams and organizations to spotlight their players with Prep Baseball Report.  Players are able to go through a full pro-style workout, posting analytical numbers and receiving notes and evaluations from PBR’s team of scouts.  Players also have the ability to add professionally cut video to their PBR Profile to further connect with the over 800 college coaches and universities that subscribe to PBR.

On September 11, 2019, PBR was on hand at Jack Hughes Park in Pineville, NC to watch players from the On Deck O’s program workout.  Position players ran a laser timed 60 yard dash, went through a full offensive evaluation, including having their exit velocity tested, and then went through a full defensive workout.  Pitchers were able to throw bullpens using the PitchLogic Baseball that records velocity and spin rates, as well as other analytical measurements on the arm swing, pitch release, and pitch movement.

Below we take a look inside some of the numbers from the PBR Scout Day.  Leaders from the laser timed 60, positional throws, exit velocity, top fastball, and more are posted below.  The leader board will not tell the entire story, but it does give everyone a feel for some of the top performances from the PBR Scout Day.
