Manager, Deep South Operations

PBR Tennessee strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state. Prep Baseball Report is the No. 1 resource for high school baseball in each state we cover through our variety of events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state.  

As we close the door on 2022 and head into 2023, PBR TN takes a look at the top 25 most viewed profiles of the year. We are able to drill down into the data and track the number of reads thanks to Google Analytics. As we usually see, the list is dominated by some of the top performers and players who have made commitments this year.

Scouting Report

9/06/22

 

Uncommitted, 6-foot-1, 200-lb proportional frame w/ present strength. Mostly works from the stretch w/ slightly open setup w/ hands set at chest. Mixes looks to the plate w/ leg lift or quick slide step. Drop n drive lower w/ slightly closed foot landing. Loose, quick arm action, coming from low 3/4 slot. FB just continued to improve over the year, as it was 82-87 this Spring before peaking at 85-89 T90 this summer at Lakepoint. Low spin w/ heavy arm side run and some sink. Mixing CB at 67-71 w/ good shape and bite, landing for strikes or bury for chase. Positionally, tools to stick at 3B w/ solid hands and good arm strength (86 INF Velo). Wide balanced stance w/ laid back bat and simple stride. Generates good bat & hand speed while consistently barreling up the ball (T 93.6; Avg: 86.3) w/ heavy dose of line drives and gap pop. Whalen emerged this Spring as a steady no. 2 arm and bat, earning all-district honors. He’s continued to build a great resume w/ two way upside and higher ceiling on the mound.
