PBR was at Mountain Island Charter on Friday November 10th for the PBR Scout Day with Regulators Baseball.  The Regulators Baseball program took part in their 2nd scout day of the year, allowing their players to post numbers as the fall season ended with an eye on goal setting for the spring start.

The day began with pitchers and catchers.  The catchers went through a defensive workout prior to receiving the bullpens of each pitcher.  As the infielders and outfielders arrived, PBR ran players through the Swift Athletics timing system, getting a laser timed 60 with a 10yd and 30yd split.  Swift will also provide top end run speed on each player.  BP followed the athletic testing, with each player taking multiple rounds of live BP.  Finally the outfielders and infielders went through a defensive workout.

For the entire workout, PBR scouts were on hand, taking stats and notes on the players in attendance.  TrackMan was used to track all ball flight of the bullpen and BP sessions.  Players were videod during the workout and videos will be added to player profiles.

TrackMan Hitting Leaders

PEAK EXIT VELOCITY

TrackMan is able to track every ball hit into fair territory, throughout the BP sessions.  Below are the exit velocities produced by individual players.

AVERAGE EXIT VELOCITY

The average exit velocity measures a players ability to consistently produce hard contact.  The average was taken based on every ball tracked by TrackMan throughout the player's BP session.

DISTANCE OFF THE BAT

TrackMan is able to measure and track the ball while in the air.  For every fair ball put in play it will display the distance the hit traveled.

Peak Distance - Best of the Hitter’s Session

Average Distance - Average of each ball tracked in the Session

SWEET SPOT PERCENTAGE

TrackMan is able to track and follow how hard the ball is hit as well as the angle off the bat. With this information, TrackMan has deduced the Sweet Spot as batted balls hit with a launch angle of 8 - 32 degrees.

LAUNCH ANGLE PERCENTAGE

Based on the ball flight, TrackMan is able to identify each hit as a ground ball, line drive, or fly ball.  While there are many factors as to why a hitter may approach each pitch in a certain way, the overall groupings of BP can give some insight to each hitter's approach.
