Pirates Scout Day: Hitting Leaderboard


By: Diego Solares
Area Scout, Illinois & Missouri

On Saturday, February 18th, the PBR Missouri staff traveled to Fenton, MO, to host the Pirates Scout Day with the St. Louis Pirates organization. Roughly 30 players representing the 2023-to-2026 grad classes from both Illinois and Missouri participated in a pro-style workout, collecting up-to-date statistics and advanced data with the help of our unrivaled tech partners.

Shortly after the event, our staff compiled the day’s statistical standouts into leaderboard format, and we put them all in one spot within our ‘Stat Story’, which can be found HERE. We then highlighted several standouts from the day within our 'Quick Hits', detailing several players at a more in-depth level. You can find that piece HERE.

Today, we've put together some batted ball leaderboards from this event with the help of our partners at TrackMan. Below you'll see which players impacted the baseball at the firmest mark from last Saturday, including both exit velocities and batted distance.
