Prep Baseball was at North Meck HS in Charlotte, NC on October 24th for the Prep Baseball Scout Day with WOW Factor Charlotte.  Scout Days allow for organizations to run a workout for their players with Prep Baseball in attendance.  Players that attend have a chance to update their Prep Baseball profile page with stats, metrics, and video.

The day began with players running a laser timed 60 yard. 10yd and 30yd splits were taken as well.  Offensive evaluations were next with players going through multiple rounds of BP.  TrackMan was used to track all ball flight off the bat.  Following the offensive session, players worked out at their defensive positions and then pitchers threw controlled bullpens.  The entire day was captured on video and player profiles will be updated with a highlight video of the workout.

The roster from the WOW Factor Charlotte Scout Day can be seen HERE.

WOW Factor Charlotte Scout Day: TrackMan Pitching Metrics

FASTBALL STATS

Peak Velocity

Rank Name State School Class Pos Velocity (max)
1 Devin Phillips NC Stuart W. Cramer 2028 SS 78.5 mph
2 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS 75.7 mph
3 Jordan Callahan NC Lake Norman Charter 2028 1B 72.9 mph
4 Jordyn Cruz NC Mooresville 2027 OF 71.4 mph
5 Isaiah Dorbor NC Metrolina Academy 2028 LHP 68.6 mph


Average Effective Velocity

Effective velocity is taking into account the velocity of each pitch, its release distance, the pitches time to the plate / hitting area, and the pitches movement.  With all of this information, Effective Velocity is allowing coaches and scouts to more accurately compare how a pitch is affecting a hitter.

Rank Name State School Class Pos Eff Velocity (avg)
1 Devin Phillips NC Stuart W. Cramer 2028 SS 76.9 mph
2 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS 71.6 mph
3 Jordan Callahan NC Lake Norman Charter 2028 1B 68.7 mph


Peak Spin Rate

Rank Name State School Class Pos Spin Rate (max)
1 Isaiah Dorbor NC Metrolina Academy 2028 LHP 2098 rpm
2 Jordan Callahan NC Lake Norman Charter 2028 1B 1984 rpm
3 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS 1909 rpm

2 Jordan Callahan NC Lake Norman Charter 2028 1B 1890 rpm
3 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS 1818 rpm


Average Induced Vertical Movement

Induced vertical movement tracks how the ball rides through the zone, or sinks through the zone.  For the purpose of this board we are tracking which fastballs showed the most ride, typically leading to more swing and miss opportunities

Rank Name State School Class Pos IVB (avg)
1 Devin Phillips NC Stuart W. Cramer 2028 SS 14.9 in
2 Isaiah Dorbor NC Metrolina Academy 2028 LHP 14.6 in
3 Jordyn Cruz NC Mooresville 2027 OF 14.0 in


Average Horizontal Movement

Horizontal movement is often referred to as run.  This measurement does not distinguish between early and late movement, just the overall amount the ball tracks to the arm side out of the hand.

Rank Name State School Class Pos HM (avg)
1 Isaiah Dorbor NC Metrolina Academy 2028 LHP 11.9
2 Devin Phillips NC Stuart W. Cramer 2028 SS -11.9
3 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS -10.2


Peak Spin Score

The Spin Score is a measurement linking velocity and spin.  It is calculated by dividing the spin rate by the velocity of each pitch.  

Rank Name State School Class Pos Spin Score (max)
1 Isaiah Dorbor NC Metrolina Academy 2028 LHP 30
2 Jordan Callahan NC Lake Norman Charter 2028 1B 27
3 Bryson Donathan NC Saint Stephens 2028 SS 25

Average Induced Vertical Movement

This is a measurement of how much the ball drops from its original position and trajectory.  It does not measure how late the movement happens.  This can be referred to as depth on a breaking ball.
