New Orleans Summer Open: Pitcher Reports
September 5, 2023
The New Orleans Summer Open was held on Tuesday, June 27th at the Tulane University. This was an open event that consisted of prospects from the 2024-2028 classes and will serve as an identifier for our Future Games and Jr. Future Games teams this coming summer, as well as any of our future invite-only events, such as the Top Prospect Games and the State Games. All players in attendance went through an extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman and Blast, the 60 yard dash using Swift Performance, and much more. Pitchers were able to throw simulated bullpens during the workout and were able to receive their numbers and metrics off of Trackman, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more.
We continue our post-event coverage with a look at the scouting reports from the event by taking a look at all pitchers who were in attendance.
