South Milwaukee Preseason I.D.: Pitcher Analysis
April 25, 2019
On March 3, the PBR Wisconsin staff held its longest running event, the South Milwaukee Preseason I.D., at Hitters Baseball Academy in Caledonia. This event has annually given us a spring preview of some of the top prospects across the state.
Today, we continue our week-long analysis of the event with the pitching prospects from the showcase. We have previously posted our Statistical Analysis of the event and Quick Hits recap in the days following the event, and we also started our position-by-position breakdown over the last week by examining the day’s outfielders, catchers, and infielders.
This group of arms in particular was deep, from its juniors to freshmen, so we ranked the top-10 prospects from each class in attendance, from 2020, 2021, to 2022.
Homestead’s Arthur Liebau is now among the top-ranked juniors in the state without a commitment. Up to No. 18 overall on our 2020 board, Liebau showed that trademark heavy fastball at Hitters in March, where he sat 86-89 mph and touched 90 mph once. His feel for secondaries, a sharp 11/5 breaking ball and a sinking change, has separated him from his peers.
This group of sophomores in particular was robust, but none made it look smoother or easier than Tommy Meyer, the uncommitted lefty from Wauwatosa East. The 6-foot-4 southpaw has a sky-high ceiling and sat in the 82-84 mph range, featuring late arm-side run, with clean and easy arm action.
Mitchell Voit (Whitefish Bay) is a two-way prospect who’s arm strength on the mound is impossible to deny. Voit is already living in the 83-84 mph range on a four-seam fastball that has hard, late life through the strike zone. He throws his offspeed with aggression and confidence, too, making him one of the highest follows in this 2022 class – one that’s already shaping up to be an historic one for Wisconsin.
Let’s get to each class’ top-10 rankings, as well as reports on every one of the pitchers who toed the rubber at the South Milwaukee showcase back in March.
