Memphis Open + Rising Stars: TrackMan Files
July 15, 2022
On July 12th the PBR Tennessee staff hosted the Memphis Open + Rising Stars event at Collierville High School, featuring many of the state’s top players inside the 2023-2026 classes. Inside today’s TrackMan Files, we’re highlighting the top performers from this event from the data and metrics from our TrackMan unit.
Earlier this week we published Quick Hits highlighting the top prospects of the event. We also rolled out a Statistical Leaderboard pointing out the top recorded stats by category.
Now we'll continue to roll out the data we gathered from this event, starting with the analytics we have at our disposal from our TrackMan unit. Below we'll look at which players had noteworthy batted ball and pitch metric data.
MAX FASTBALL
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Velocity (max) |
1 | Eli DeBerry | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 87.3 mph |
2 | Jack Hibbard | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 84.0 mph |
3 | Collin Tobin | TN | Christian Brothers | 2025 | OF | 81.9 mph |
4 | Britt Fowler | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 81.2 mph |
5 | Connor Stevens | TN | Christian Brothers | 2023 | RHP | 80.7 mph |
Max Fastball Velocity: This metric calculates the speed of the pitch as it’s released from the pitcher’s hand.
PEAK SPIN RATE
Rank | Name | State | School | Class | Pos | Spin Rate (max) |
1 | Eli DeBerry | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 2435 rpm |
2 | Jack Hibbard | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 2352 rpm |
3 | Collin Tobin | TN | Christian Brothers | 2025 | OF | 2317 rpm |
4 | Britt Fowler | TN | Arlington | 2024 | RHP | 2310 rpm |
5 | Connor Stevens | TN | Christian Brothers | 2023 | RHP | 2289 rpm |
Spin Rate: This metric calculates the rate of spin on the baseball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Historical data shows that high-spin fastballs lessen the impact of gravity, allowing for more ‘rise’ (or less fall, in other words) as it carries through the zone. Low-spin fastballs typically indicate the pitch has greater horizontal action, often making it tougher to square up, but generally easier to make contact with, leading to more ground balls, while high-spin fastballs show a correlation with swings and misses.
