February 3, 2022
PBR Missouri traveled down to the southeast corner of the state to the Bootheel and hosted the Bootheel Preseason ID featuring many of the top players from the 2022 class to the 2025's. Today we take a look at the top pitching leaders in data captured by Trackman. We dive into the top velocities, spin rates, induced vertical breaks, and top horizontal breaks on fastballs, curveballs, and sliders. The event featured multiple arms that had a feel for spinning the ball in the zone. You can access all the stats and info from the Bootheel Preseason ID by clicking here.
