McHenry Preseason ID: Top Overall Prospects
May 5, 2022
On Feb. 12, the PBR Illinois team hosted its second Preseason ID event of the new year: the McHenry Preseason ID. For the past six years, this event has provided our staff with an opportunity to evaluate high school-aged prospects from northern Illinois, primarily. The McHenry event has historically revealed to us some of the area’s top talent, and this year was no different.
In the week that followed this event, we produced post-event analysis that includes performance highlights inside of our Quick Hits story, a look at the traditional stats measured within our Statistical Analysis piece, batted-ball and pitch data compiled in TrackMan Files, swing metrics captured on the Blast Motion Board, and sight scores from an athletic perspective tracked on the Vizual Edge Scoreboard.
You can learn more about the state-of-the-art technologies featured at our showcases within the hyperlinks above. We began our position-by-position player analysis earlier this week with the catching crop and outfielders, and finished off the position players late last week by rolling out the infielders. We wrapped up the position-by-position analysis yesterday by jumping to the mound and taking a look at a deep crop of arms.
We'll put the complete finishing touches on this event by ranking the top overall prospects in attendance, which you can find below.
