Missouri State Preseason ID: Blast Motion Board


By: Diego Solares
Area Scout, Illinois & Missouri

On Sunday, January 22nd, the PBR Missouri staff traveled to Hammons Field, home of the Missouri State University baseball program and Springfield Cardinals, to host the inaugural Missouri State Preseason ID. This event featured roughly 30 players from the 2023-to-2026 classes across Missouri and it served as an early identifier for future invite-only events, such as the Preseason All-State or the PBR Future Games. It also allowed our staff an opportunity to check in on players from this area of the state prior to the high school season commencing.

Shortly after the event's conclusion, our staff highlighted several players who stood out from the day within our 'Quick Hits' piece. You can learn more about those players by clicking HERE. We then broke down the stat leaders from the event within our 'Stat Story', and turned to our partners at TrackMan to create both our hitting leaderboards and pitching leaderboards.

Now, we'll utilize our partners at Blast Motion to analyze the swings from this event, and we'll also shine some light on players whose athletic testing stood out amongst their peers. All of that, found below.
