The Future Games is the premier summer scouting event for Class of 2023 prospects and select 2024 prospects. In a typical year, more than 320 college coaches from all over the country are in attendance. The event is huge draw for college with many of the top uncommitted players from across the country in attendance. The Prep Baseball Report services are also subscribed by more than 800 colleges and pro scouts. Last year, due to COVID, scouts weren't able to be in attendance but they were able to follow along through our online streaming platform that is hooked up on every field at this premier facility. 

Players will also receive maximum visibility from college coaches all over the country, in addition to being promoted through the Prep Baseball Report multimedia platforms. 

Each state team will play three games. Day 1, all position players will be put through a showcase workout in which they will run 60s, take batting practice and be evaluated at their primary position. The following days players will compete in live game setting vs teams & top players from other states.

2023 RHP Samuel ROund JOINS TEAM ARIZONA

+ 2023 RHP Samuel Round (Pinnacle)- Round attended our Preseason ID back at the beginning of February, using modified stretch where he previously worked up to 80mph. He almost looked like a completely different pitcher when he came to our 2023 Top Prospect Games this past June. You can tell he spent some time refining his delivery over the last several months in order to use more of his natural athleticism. Round sports an athletic long limbed frame with plenty of room for strength gains. He throws from a 3/4 arm slot with short loose arm action. Lands slightly closed with athletic finish & short extension. Showed us three quality pitches with a FB that got on you with some quickness. His off speed has + potential while keeping it down in the zone. His FB worked 84-87mph while topping out at 88mph with varying movement via Trackman. Threw his SL/CH relatively equal frequency. SL had some sweeping action with tight spin at 2375rpm, averaging 14.3 inches of break to the glove side at 71-73mph. His CH has some sink/arm side movement at 76-79mph. Round should be a pitcher to follow in near future.
