Lake Charles Summer Open: TrackMan Files


PBR Louisiana Staff

On Sunday, May 21, we hosted the Lake Charles Summer Open at Barbe HS. The event featured prospects from all high school classes

Today, we’re continuing our post-event analysis by examining the data measured by our TrackMan units. The technology is able to capture information that’s difficult to capture by the naked eye, like pitch-by-pitch metrics and batted-ball data. We’ll explain more below:

MAX FASTBALL & PEAK SPIN RATE

Rank Name State School Class Pos Velocity (max)
1 Michael Peavy TX St Pius X 2025 C 87.1 mph
2 Davis Emonet LA Catholic 2025 OF 84.2 mph
3 Wes Marien LA Parkview Baptist 2024 RHP 83.7 mph
4 Hayes Mire LA Kaplan 2025 LHP 83.0 mph
5 Parker Freeman TX Little Cypress Mauriceville 2026 3B 81.7 mph

Rank Name State School Class Pos Spin Rate (max)
1 Wes Marien LA Parkview Baptist 2024 RHP 2172 rpm
2 Lucas Lawrence LA Catholic (BR) 2026 LHP 2168 rpm
3 Hayes Mire LA Kaplan 2025 LHP 2117 rpm
4 Davis Emonet LA Catholic 2025 OF 2070 rpm
5 Dylan Navarre LA Loreauville High School 2025 LHP 2050 rpm

Max Fastball Velocity: This metric calculates the speed of the pitch as it’s released from the pitcher’s hand.

Spin Rate: This metric calculates the rate of spin on the baseball as it leaves the pitcher’s hand, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Historical data shows that high-spin fastballs lessen the impact of gravity, allowing for more ‘rise’ (or less fall, in other words) as it carries through the zone. Low-spin fastballs typically indicate the pitch has greater horizontal action, often making it tougher to square up, but generally easier to make contact with, leading to more ground balls, while high-spin fastballs show a correlation with swings and misses.

AVERAGE FASTBALL HORIZONTAL MOVEMENT

Rank Name State School Class Pos HM (avg)
1 Dylan Navarre LA Loreauville High School 2025 LHP -17.6
2 Isaac Russell LA North Vermilion 2025 RHP 10.5
3 Parker Freeman TX Little Cypress Mauriceville 2026 3B 10.2
4 Lucas Lawrence LA Catholic (BR) 2026 LHP -9.7
5 Kohen Boudreaux LA Iowa 2026 LHP 9.6

Horizontal Break: Outlined on TrackMan’s own website: “... horizontal movement is measured in inches between where the pitch actually crosses the front of home plate side-wise, and where it would have crossed home plate side-wise if had it traveled in a perfectly straight line from release. A positive number means the break was to the right from the pitcher’s perspective, while a negative number means the break was to the left from the pitcher’s perspective.”

AVERAGE SLIDER SPIN RATE

Rank Name State School Class Pos Spin Rate (avg)
1 Wes Marien LA Parkview Baptist 2024 RHP 2124
