Carolinas Top of the Summer: Top Fastballs
September 29, 2021
PBR was working all summer to identify as many players for college coaches and pro scouts as possible throughout the summer of 2021. While the world was not completely back to normal, our scouting staff was able to attend PBR Events, PBR Tournaments, practices, games, workouts, and other events. With each event in the Carolinas, we will look back at some of the top performers from the summer of 2021
Top of the Summer: Top Fastballs
Throughout the summer, PBR scouts were on hand to capture stats, notes and video on players attending PBR events. Today we turn our attention to some of the top fastballs profiled by PBR Scouts in the Summer of 2021. While looking at pure velocity, we are also taking a look at spin rate and movement metrics captured by TrackMan at PBR events and coverage that may have included a TrackMan unit. Below are the top fastballs of the summer of 2021.
