Idaho State Games: Positional Data Dive
June 11, 2024
The Idaho State Games kicked off an exciting Summer season that featured a depth of talent has forced us to break up our Quick Hits feature into Upperclass and Underclass groups to make sure we all players to receive proper recognition. At the two day Idaho State Games, players received an unrivaled amount of data, including, Swift Performance Athletic Testing, Vizual Edge Analysis, TrackMan Analyzed Batting Practice Sessions, Blast Motion Analyzed Batting Practice Sessions, TrackMan Analyzed Pitcher Evaluations and Prep Baseball Verified Height / Weight / Grip Strength Testing. This event allowed players to show their developed skill through objective data collection, followed by Live Game Play to allow for in-game action to also be tracked and highlighted.

Earlier this week, we broke down the top measurable data performers from the event with our Statistical Analysis, Pitching Data Dive, Underclass Quick Hits and Upperclass Quick Hits. Now, we conclude our post-event coverage with a further in-depth look at the top positional players with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below:

Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.

The Edge Score is a comprehensive score out of 100 that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing athletes, parents, coaches and scouts with a benchmark number for assessing an athlete’s overall visual ability. In general the higher the Edge Score, the higher chance of athletic success. Think of the Edge Score as the 'Sixth Metric' in the standard Five-Tools that make up a ball player.
The average Edge Score for the 2020 MLB Draft Class was 79.3 (of hitters who completed a Vizual Edge test). MLB players we've worked with typically show stronger scores, with elite hitters scoring consistently above 87.0 on their Edge Score.
