Ontario Blue Jays Scout Day: TrackMan Pitching Leaders
April 11, 2023
On Friday, April 8th, PBR Ontario joined forces with the Ontario Blue Jays for a Scout Day for the second year in a row. We got a look at over 100 players in the organization from the 2023 - 2027 classes with the pitchers throwing bullpens at the Athlete Matrix and the positional players getting outdoors at Kings Christian Collegiate.
It was a loaded roster that included some of the programs top underclass and five committed players, along with highly intriguing uncommitted talent from all classes. Their was a ton of high-level performers as shown by the metrics collected at the event and we break it all down below with stat leaderboards.
At this event, we retrieved a significant amount of data on each player including: 60-yard times, batting practice measured by TrackMan, catcher pop-times and velocity, outfield evaluation and velocity, infield evaluation and velocity and pitcher bullpens analyzed and assessed by TrackMan. We pride ourselves on utilizing the latest technology in the game to provide the most accurate data for both the player and those recruiting/evaluating the player.
Below, we continue to break down all the data with a look at the top TrackMan pitching data from the event.
