NC Fall Review: TrackMan BP Standouts

Throughout the fall, PBR Scouts were working to continue our coverage of the players and teams in the Palmetto State.  This included covering events, practices, games, and PBR's own events.  During PBR Events, players run through a modified pro-style workout.  The position player portion of the workout includes a laser timed 60, offensive workout, and defensive workout.  PBR uses TrackMan to track ball flight during BP.  Pitchers throw controlled bullpens, again with TrackMan gathering information on each pitch.

Information gathered by PBR Scouts is added to each players' PBR Profile.  With over 900 colleges and every MLB organization subscribed to PBR, the information is easily accessible as teams are searching for their future players.  In 2021, PBR Player Profiles averaged over 1 million hits per month.  A full player profile will include stats, advanced analytics from TrackMan and Blast, video, and scouting evaluations.  By housing all of the information in one place, coaches and scouts can see what a player is, as well as build history, allowing an easier path to future projection in their analysis.

Fall Review: trackman BP Leaders

During PBR events, PBR Scouts will utilize TrackMan to gather ball flight analytics off the bat and out of the hand of pitchers.  During BP, TrackMan is able to capture a ton of data from contact.  Below we are taking a look at two stat categories that can separate hitters.  The first is exit velocity, both max and average.  We also are taking a look at the max distance off the bat.  These numbers give us some idea on the strength of a hitter at contact as well as their barrel consistency during BP.
