North AL Preseason All-State: Pitcher Reports
January 22, 2023
HARTSELLE, AL - The North AL Preseason All-State was held on Saturday, January 7th at Hartselle High School in Hartselle, AL. This event was an invite-only event that consisted of some of the top prospects from the 2023-2026 classes. These players went through extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman and Blast Motion, ran the 60 yard dash using Swift Performance, and much more. Pitchers were able to throw in simulated bullpens during the workout and were able to get numbers and metrics off of our Trackman unit, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing on Saturday.
Today we wrap up our post-event content by taking a look at all of the pitchers at the event.
