On Sept. 22, the PBR Wisconsin team was forced to move its annual Senior Games indoors, from Concordia University to STiKS Academy, due to threat of rain. Regardless, it was still a successful, if small, senior-only showcase that’s already resulted in six commitments, with more surely on the way. We’re breaking our player analysis into three parts.

Today, we’ll be publishing both the position player scouting reports and the pitcher reports from the event. Tomorrow, Friday, we’ll analyze the top-15 prospects from the showcase and rank them accordingly.

For now, here are reports on each of the position players who attended the late September showcase.
