PBR Texas strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state.

Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state.

TX Most Viewed Profiles: February 2023

Blake Mitchell C / RHP / Sinton, TX / 2023

The #1 player in Texas has come out of the gates on fire as he looks to help lead Sinton to back to back State Titles. The LSU signee is the top catcher in the country.

 

Conner Helms SS / 3B / Dripping Springs, TX / 2025

The rising sophomore started his Varsity campaign off with a homerun in Wk. 1. Helms continues to elevate his play every time we see him. 

 

Travis Sykora RHP / SS / Round Rock, TX / 2023

The UT signee is the top arm in the state and may be the hardest thrower in the country.  Sykora was up to 99 in his last start.

 

Casan Evans RHP / SS / St. Pius X, TX / 2024

The #1 player in TX for the '24 class, Evans has been up to 92 early on this spring and shows feel for a plus slider.

 

Grady Emerson SS / 2B / Argyle , TX / 2026

The #1 freshman in Texas, Emerson has one of the sweetest swings in the state regardless of class.  The future Horned Frog is part of a really talented Argyle team looking to get back to state. 

 

Caden Sorrell OF / LHP / Marcus, TX / 2023

Sorrell could be one of the big risers on draft boards as the spring plays out.  The Aggie signee shows 5 tool potential and is off to a hot start for Marcus this spring.

 

Justin Pitcher OF / RHP / Clear Brook , TX / 2026

Pitcher is an athletic 2 way from Houston who showed out at one of our Preseason ID's in Jan. He has a quick arm with a projectable frame.  His velo should continue to jump.  He also shows some juice at the plate. 

 

Angelo Volante OF / 2B / Atascocita, TX / 2025

The sophomore from Houston performed well at our Preseason ID at Rice. He is good athlete that can play both the outfield and the infield.

 

Charles Evans C / OF / St Michaels Academy, TX / 2024

Evans really showed well at the Preseason All State event in Tennessee early this year. The physical catcher out of Austin put up quality metrics across the board and shows potential on both sides of the ball. 

 

Braden Durrett C / 3B / Ridge Point, TX / 2027

Durrett is a projectable 8th grader who shows the necessary skills to be a high end backstop as he gets older.  As he continues to mature and get stronger, his tools could really take off.
