Madison Preseason ID: Positional Data Dive
March 20, 2023
On Mar. 12, the PBR Wisconsin staff hosted the Madison Preseason ID at GRB Academy in Windsor, WI. This event featured around 150 prospects, most of whom are Wisconsin natives, and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players in attendance.
Wednesday, we published our Quick Hits from the event. Thursday, we broke down the top measurable data performers from the event with our Statistical Analysis. Today, we will take a further in-depth look at the top positional players with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below:

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.

The Edge Score is a comprehensive score out of 100 that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing athletes, parents, coaches and scouts with a benchmark number for assessing an athlete’s overall visual ability. In general the higher the Edge Score, the higher chance of athletic success. Think of the Edge Score as the 'Sixth Metric' in the standard Five-Tools that make up a ball player.
The average Edge Score for the 2020 MLB Draft Class was 79.3 (of hitters who completed a Vizual Edge test). MLB players we've worked with typically show stronger scores, with elite hitters scoring consistently above 87.0 on their Edge Score.
