COLLIERVILLE, TN - The Prep Baseball Memphis Preseason ID was held on Sunday, January 19th at Collierville High School in Collierville, TN. Players went through an extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman, ran the 60-yard dash using Vald Performance, and much more. Pitchers were able to get numbers and metrics on TrackMan during a bullpen setting. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing at the event.

Continuing our post-event coverage for the event, we take a look at the positional player reports from the Memphis Preseason ID.
