Top Prospect Games (Underclass): Positional Player Reports


PBR Alabama Staff

OXFORD, AL - The Top Prospect Games: Underclass was held on Wednesday, June 22nd at Choccolocco in Oxford, AL. This event consisted of prospects from the 2024 through 2026 classes. These players went through a pro-style workout and took batting practice using Trackman to record hitting metrics, followed by gameplay. Pitchers threw in gameplay and were able to get numbers and metrics off of our Trackman unit, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing on Wednesday.

Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look at each positional player that attended last week's event. Please continue to check back over the next week, as we will release individual scouting reports on each pitcher present at the event.
