A's Scout Day: Pitching Leaderboard
March 3, 2023
On Sunday, February 26th, the PBR Missouri staff traveled to Fenton, MO, to host the final event on our winter calendar: the A's Athletics Scout Day. This event featured more than 115 players representing the 2023-to-2027 grad classes from the A's travel program. Attendees participated in a pro-style workout in front of our staff, collecting verified data in the process while also getting unrivaled access to analytics with the help of our tech partners.

Shortly after the event’s conclusion, our staff posted a ‘Stat Story’ that highlighted some of the event’s stat leaders in our traditional categories, like the 60-yard dash, throwing velocities, and more. You can find that by clicking HERE.
Earlier today our staff put together our 'Hitting Leaderboard' from this event, identifying several batted ball standouts with the help of our partners at TrackMan. We'll turn our attention back to the data now but on the pitching side instead, diving deeper into which arms spun the baseball at the highest rate at this event.
