PBR Michigan Director of Scouting
We would like to thank all who participated in the 2016 Western Michigan Unsigned Senior/Underclass Preview. This was a great opportunity for the class of 2017-2019 prospects to be put on college radars. Many players impressed during their individual workouts at the showcase. Below we have the complete statistical results from the event as well as the top performers across various different categories.
In the coming weeks, we will be adding and updating profiles for each of the players in attendance, including complete analysis and video.

The Arms
Benjamin Thomas, RHP/3B, Zeeland East, 2017
Scouting Report: 6-foot-5, 220-pound prospect big framed RHP repeats his mechanics each time. Ball comes out of his hands very heavy from a high-¾ angle while he tends to throw with mostly arm at this time. As he learns to engage his legs there is more velocity in the tank. Fastball sat 81-85 mph with a downhill action, 72 mph power curve and 77-79 mph sinking changeup thrown with the same arm speed as his fastball.
