Central Washington Preseason ID - Pitching Data Dive


Dan Jurik
Scouting Director - Pacific Northwest

On Saturday, February 3rd we were at The Six Athletic Training in Moses Lake, WA for our 2nd preseason ID event of the year. The Central Washington PD has been held for 4 years now and this most recent workout stood out as one of the best.  

Preseason ID events serve as an identifier heading into the spring high school season, giving our scouts as well as college recruiters, a list of prospects to follow as they plan their spring coverage. We also tend to see prospects’ best performances in the preseason, as most athletes are fresh and coming off of strict and targeted off-season training programs that have resulted in big gains, primed for updating their Prep Baseball profile. All of which lends the perfect opportunity to secure invitations to some of the summer's biggest invite-only events such as the Top Prospect Games, Prep Baseball Future Games, and more.

Below is pitching data collected via Trackman. All stats are recorded and made available on the individual player profile.

Effective velocity is taking into account the velocity of each pitch, its release distance, the pitches time to the plate / hitting area, and the pitches movement.  With all of this information, Effective Velocity is allowing coaches and scouts to more accurately compare how a pitch is affecting a hitter
