Idaho Falls Preseason ID: Positional Data Dive
February 16, 2024
On Saturday, February 10th, the Prep Baseball Idaho staff hosted it's first event of the 2024 season with the Idaho Falls Preseason ID hosted at Bobcat Fieldhouse in Rexburg, Idaho. This event featured 35+ players from the Idaho Falls area in the 2024 - 2028 classes and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look and analysis of the players in attendance.
Earlier this week, we broke down the top measurable data performers from the event with our Quick Hits, Statistical Analysis and Pitching Data Dive articles. Now, we will take a further in-depth look at the top position players and metrics with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below:
