This Saturday, Feb. 18th, the PBR Washington team is hosting the Seattle Preseason ID - Session 2 at the EL1 Sports Facility in Puyallup, Was. This is an open event for all high school classes (2023-26), and gives our staff an ample look at the area's top players.

2023 ROSTER

A pair of ranked 2024 prospects are set to attend Saturday’s event, starting with C/SS Braden O’Donnell (Jackson, 2024). O’Donnell is listed at an athletic 5-foot-10, 165-pounds and offensively he has recorded EVs in the low-80s from a smooth right-handed swing. Despite profiling as a backstop, he is a well above-average runner as he has recorded a 6.81 low in the 60-yard dash. While behind the plate he is a quality receiver and has recorded pop-time lows of 2.00.

OF/RHP Kasey Newton (Nooksack Valley, 2024) will also be in attendance on Saturday and he is an intriguing two-way prospect. Offensively, he features a quality left-handed swing that has produced EVs up to 92.3 mph. On the mound, he is a clean mover with a repeatable delivery and he has run his fastball up to 81.7 mph with some feel for three offspeed offerings in our previous looks. After a full offseason training, our staff is excited to see the gains these two prospects have made during our time in Puyallup.

Perusing the event roster, we’re set to meet a majority of players who’ve not yet attended a PBR showcase, and we’re eager to add more names to our follow lists.

EVENT CHECK-IN PROCESS
