TrackMan Leaders: Canes National ID Pitchers


Brandon Hall
Mid-Atlantic Scouting Director

On Saturday August 12th PBR of South Carolina and North Carolina was on hand at C35 Baseball Complex for the Canes National Team Trials. The event featured players from the 2025-2028 Grad Classes. 

The day began with players going through a rotation that involved running a laser timed 60 and taking batting practice on the field with Trackman collecting ball flight data. After batting practice, position players went through a defensive evaluation. The scout day concluded with pitchers throwing a controlled bullpen with Trackman gathering information on each pitch, along with a live action game play. 

Below we begin our breakdown of the players in attendance. Look for more information to follow in the coming days.

FASTBALL STATS


Peak Velocity

Rank Name State School Class Pos Velocity (max)
1 Aiden Robinson MI South Lyon 2025 OF 83.9 mph
2 Patrick Hollifield NC Swansboro 2026 SS 82.5 mph
3 Brock Adkins NC John T. Hoggard 2027 LHP 81.1 mph
4 Chase White NC South Central 2028 C 79.4 mph
5 Carter Thomasson VA Halifax 2026 C 79.0 mph


Average Effective Velocity

Effective velocity is taking into account the velocity of each pitch, its release distance, the pitches time to the plate / hitting area, and the pitches movement.  With all of this information, Effective Velocity is allowing coaches and scouts to more accurately compare how a pitch is affecting a hitter.

Rank Name State School Class Pos Eff Velocity (avg)
1 Aiden Robinson MI South Lyon 2025 OF 79.6 mph
2 Brock Adkins NC John T. Hoggard 2027 LHP 76.5 mph
3 Patrick Hollifield NC Swansboro 2026 SS 75.5 mph

5 Brock Adkins NC John T. Hoggard 2027 LHP 1929 rpm


Average Induced Vertical Movement

Induced vertical movement tracks how the ball rides through the zone, or sinks through the zone.  For the purpose of this board we are tracking which fastballs showed the most ride, typically leading to more swing and miss opportunities

Rank Name State School Class Pos IVB (avg)
1 Evan Cagide NC Apex Friendship 2027 OF 18.6 in

5 Brock Adkins NC John T. Hoggard 2027 LHP 13.4 in


Average Horizontal Movement

Horizontal movement is often referred to as run.  This measurement does not distinguish between early and late movement, just the overall amount the ball tracks to the arm side out of the hand.

Rank Name State School Class Pos HM (avg)
1 Brock Adkins NC John T. Hoggard 2027 LHP 18.7
