2024 Preseason ID Leaderboard: Catcher Velocity
February 8, 2024
Louisiana - Starting on January 6, 2024, we hosted three Preseason ID events across the state. Our staff started in New Orleans, before heading to Baton Rouge, and finishing up in Lake Charles. The purpose of these events was to give players a chance to showcase the work that they put in during the off-season, and many of them did just that. Today, we continue the post-event coverage of our Preseason ID events with a look at the top catcher velocities from the three events combined.
