Fall Campus Tour: Kennesaw State - Pitcher Analysis


Phil Kerber
Georgia Scouting Director

PBR Georgia hit the road for its fourth stop on the Fall Campus Tour on Saturday, November 19th at Claude Smith Field on the campus of the Mercer University. This event featured nearly 20 prospects  from the 2023-2027 classes. Prospects participated in a pro-style workout that included the 60 yard dash, batting practice, in and out, and pitcher bullpens.

We started the event analysis with a look at the traditional stats in the form of a "
Stats Story". That was followed up by the initial thoughts and reactions from our staff in our "Quick Hits". Today, we continue the event analysis with a look at the pitchers in attendance. Keep reading to view the top prospects and best of the rest listed alphabetically.
