Statistical Breakdown: Burlington & Mooresville Open ID's


Matt Payne
Director of Scouting, PBR of NC

PBR of North Carolina hosted Open ID’s in Burlington, NC on October 20th and Mooresville NC on October 21st. The events featured players from the 2022-2026 grad classes. 

The Open ID’s began with catchers going through their defensive evaluations. PItchers followed by throwing a controlled bullpen with cameras rolling and Trackman collecting ball flight information. When the bullpens were complete, position players ran a laser timed 60, took live batting practice on the field with Trackman gathering ball flight data. The event concluded with outfielders and infielders going through a defensive workout. 

Below we being to break down some of the numbers collected throughout the events with more player information to follow in the coming days.

THE 60 YARD DASH

Players ran a laser timed 60 yard dash to start the pro-style workout. The 60's were ran on a natural surface.

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.

10 Jackson Berini NC Orange 2023 SS 88.3 mph

TRACKMAN MAX DISTANCE (BP)

During BP, TrackMan tracked ball flight off the bat.  One element TrackMan is able to produce is the distance each hit travels, if in fair territory.  Below are the top max distances produced during live BP.

Rank Name State School Class Pos Distance (max)
1 Ian Bailey NC Jordan 2024 1B 391 ft

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.  Coaches are working to evaluate rhythm, footwork, hands, exchanges, arm action, accuracy, and carry.  To measure arm strength PBR Scouts utilize a radar gun.  Below are the top posted positional velocities from the day.

10 Collin Robinson NC Cherryville 2023 SS 72

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.  Scouts are also working to see exchange, arm path, carry, and accuracy.

Rank Name State School Class Pos OF Velo
1 Jacob Dilley NC Watauga 2023 C 88
2 Connor Peschel NC Fred T Foard 2022 SS 79
3 Cameron Neighoff NC Home School 2025 OF 73
4 CJ Whitaker NC Corinth Holders 2025 C 72
5 Noah Hatley NC Concord Academy 2025 LHP 68

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.  Scouts again are looking for a quick, clean transition to the release as well as carry and accuracy on the throw.  For catchers, evaluators will put a stopwatch on the “pop time” or the time the ball hits their glove to the time the ball hits the MIF’s glove at 2B.  Coaches can also time the transition from when the ball hits the catchers glove to when he is able to release his throw.  PBR scouts add the radar gun to put a number on the arm strength out of the crouched position.
