PBR Scout Day: Diamond Deacons - Infielder Analysis
November 27, 2019
Prep Baseball Report Scout Days allow teams an opportunity to showcase their players for PBR scouts, and college coaches, while working with PBR to produce a full pro-style workout. Players, at a PBR Scout Day, will run a laser timed 60 yard dash, workout offensively, receiving multiple rounds of live BP, as well as going through exit velocity testing. Following the offensive workout, players are able to workout at their primary defensive position. Pitchers will then throw a controlled bullpen.
On Saturday November 9th, PBR of North Carolina ran a Scout Day for players in the Diamond Deacon program and a handful of players from the Muddog organization. Today we continue the individual player analysis with the primary infielders. Thirteen primary infielders went through the pro-style workout with six also working out on the mound. One 2021 paired up with several from the 2023 and 2024 to make up the infielder group below.
