Top Prospect Upperclass Games: Pitching Leaderboard
June 20, 2023
PBR Arkansas hosted the Top Prospect Upperclass Games on Tuesday, June 13th at the University of Arkansas-Little Rock. The invite-only event featured talented prospects from the 2024 and 2025 classes.
The players took part in a traditional pro style workout with laser timed 60's, BP rounds with data captured by Trackman and Blast motion, defensive evaluations with radar gun readings, and finished it up with a simulated game where pitchers faced live hitters and had their data captured by Trackman.

Shortly after the event’s conclusion, our staff published the day’s stat leaders, highlighting a handful of names who put up numbers across the board. You can find that by clicking HERE.
Then, with the help of our tech partners, we compiled a hitting leaderboard, shining some light on multiple top offensive performers through an analytical lens. Those names can be found HERE.
We’ll turn our attention to the mound today, zooming in on a few names that’s data intrigued on the hill, which you can find below.
