Stat Leaders: Team Beast NC Scout Day


Brandon Hall
Mid-Atlantic Scouting Director

PBR was in Wilmington, NC on Saturday October 14th for a scout day with Team Beast NC.  The plan for the day included an indoor workout with some outdoor aspects at the Team Beast Facility.  The facility, beautiful and clean, allows players the ability to go through a full warm up and agility session.  It also houses a number of cages that can all be pulled back to give players a chance to do their defensive work.  We had planned to run and collect catcher pop times outside at the facility, but weather prevented a track that was safe enough for players to perform at top level so there were adjustments made to the plan.

The day began with timed 10yd bursts, using the Swift Athletic lasers.  Next, players went through a full offensive workout in an open cage area, allowing the ball to fly, with TrackMan recording the swings.  Defensive evaluations were next, followed by conrolled bullpen for the pitchers.

You can see the full roster and statistical output HERE.  In the coming days, we will continue to break down some of the players that attended this scout day on the coast.

Statistical Leaders

10 Yard Sprint

Swift Athletic Laser Timers were used to time each runner in a 10 yard burst.  Each player ran twice.  Below we take a look at the top 10yd burst from the event.  Look for more information coming from the Swift Athletics testing in the coming weeks.


TrackMan Max Exit Velocity (BP)

During BP, TrackMan tracked ball flight off the bat.  One element TrackMan is able to produce is the exit velocity.  Below are the top Exit Velocities produced during live BP.


Positional Velocity - Infielders

Infielders were able to workout at shortstop throwing across the infield, or from 1B throwing to 2B and 3B in the pro-style workout.


Positional Velocity - Outfielders

Outfielders worked out from right field, making throws to the plate.  Throws were measured by a radar gun to gauge arm strength. 


Catcher Pop Times & Positional Velocity

In the pro-style workout, catchers workout from behind home plate, making multiple throws to 2B, simulating a stolen base attempt.  



*Due to space, a full pop time was not available.  Instead PBR Scouts were able to record Pop to Release Times for each catcher

RANK NAME STATE SCHOOL CLASS POSITION RELEASE TIME

TrackMan Info - Pitcher Bullpens

Pitchers threw a controlled bullpen showcasing their full arsenal of pitches. Velocity and spin rate information was gathered off of the TrackMan. TrackMan analytics are the official analytics and the velocities below were captured by TrackMan.
