On Sunday, February 2nd, the Prep Baseball Nevada staff hosted it's third and final showcase of the preseason with the Reno Preseason ID hosted at Bishop Manogue High School in Reno, Nevada. The event featured 40+ prospects from the Northern Nevada area and it was another talented group to help close out the preseason with several of the top uncommitted players in that region of the State.

The event included players in the 2025 - 2028 classes with all players running through a full workout alongside our tech partners TrackMan, Blast Motion, VALD Performance and Physical/Athletic Testing. Preseason ID showcases allow players a chance to showcase their offseason gains ahead of the high school season, while also giving their profiles a complete revamp. Attending Preseason ID showcases also makes players eligible for marquee Prep Baseball events such as the Future Games, Senior Future Games, Junior Future Games, West Coast Games and the Nevada State Games.

Earlier this week we began our post-event coverage within our Quick Hits, Statistical Analysis and Pitching Data Dive articles. Today, we'll conclude our post-event coverage within this Positional Data Dive article as we break down the top TrackMan, Blast Motion, Vizual Edge and Physical Testing data among positional players at the event.

TRACKMAN

EXIT VELOCITY (MAX)

EXIT VELOCITY (AVG.)

Exit Velocity: This metric measures the speed of the ball, measured in miles per hour, as it comes off the bat at the moment of contact.

BATTED BALL DISTANCE (MAX)

Distance – This metric measures how far the ball traveled, or would travel if it was not obstructed, measured in feet.

BATTED BALL DISTANCE (AVG.)

HARD HIT %

Hard Hit % - Percentage of batted balls with an exit velocity of 90 MPH or higher.

SWEET SPOT %

Sweet Spot %: This metric is determined by how often the player produces a batted ball during the session with a launch angle between 8 to 32 degrees.

VALD PERFORMANCE

60-YARD DASH

10-YARD SPLIT

30-YARD SPLIT

MAX RUN SPEED

MAX VERTICAL JUMP

MAX RSI

BLAST MOTION

HAND SPEED (AVG.)

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

BAT SPEED (AVG.)

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (AVG.)

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.
