Top Prospects Upperclass: Outfield Reports
July 8, 2023
Emerson GA - On June 13th we hosted some of the top 2024 prospects in the state for the Top Prospect Games. The players went through a pro-style working, and took batting practice with Blast Motion and Trackman metrics. Game play followed the pro-style workout and pitchers were able to get numbers and metrics off of our Trackman unit, such as pitch velocity, spin rate, horizontal & vertical movement & much more.
Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look at all outfielders from the 13th. Stay tuned for the rest of the position players and pitchers to follow.
