OC Preseason All-State Stats Leaders

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA. - The Road to the California State Games began at the second annual Orange County Preseason All-State held at JSerra High School. Players descended on St. Pierre Field to show their fall/winter progress in the leadup to the spring season just a few weeks away. The invitation only event drew over 200 requests which was narrowed down to the 80 participants selected.  

Players were put through a customary pro-style workout that included a laser-time 60-yard sprint, a round of batting practice, a defensive workout that includes double-play turns for infielders, and concluded with bullpen sessions for pitchers. We purposely did not include games because we didn’t want to put pitchers who aren’t ready to face live hitters in that situation.  

As we dive deeper into our notes and videos we will release more post-event content. Earlier we released our Quick Hits highlighting 20 early standouts  and now we present our Statistical Analysis. 

Top 60-yd Times:

Players were able to run a full, laser-timed 60 yard dash in the workout from a base-stealing start position. The top 60 yard dash times are below. 

Top Exit Velocity:

Offensive players took live BP on the field allowing scouts to see the ball fly off the bat. At home plate prior to BP, players worked off a tee with a radar gun reading the exit speed of the ball off the bat.  The top exit velocities are below.

Top Max FB Velocity:

Pitchers threw controlled bullpens for the PBR staff.  Each player was able to work through their normal sequencing while showcasing their command and stuff.  Below are the top fastballs from the event.
