TN: 5 Star Scout Day Hitters
October 26, 2018
On October 21st, Cumberland hosted a Scout Day for the 5 Star organization. This event included a position player workout, followed by pitchers throwing a 10-15 pitch pen on the game mound. Players were afforded the opportunity to showcase their abilities in front of the PBR Tennessee staff. Due to rain, the position player portion was filmed on the side field next to the baseball field and all the hitting occurred indoors. The following is a look at every position player that attended the event!

As a receiver, presented an occasional low target for his pitchers, can present it earlier to give the pitcher a better visual cue. Strong fore-arms, shows ability to stick the baseball. Got into better stances as the bullpens went along and he got comfortable with the pitcher and his timing. As a thrower, shows solid release w/ a short cocking action at times that created an occasional rotational throw and caused him to misfire to the third base side of the second base bag. /var/www/html/login/modules/Playerss/shortcodes.json not found
