60 Yard Dash

Swift Athletic Laser Timers were used to time each runner in the 10, 30, and 60 yard run.  Below we take a look at the best runners in the 60 from the event. 

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 Positional Velocity & Pop Times

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
