Madison Open: Pitcher Analysis


By. Wisconsin Staff

On June 27, PBR Wisconsin hosted its first-ever Madison Open at Sun Prairie East High School's Summit Field in Sun Prairie, Wis. Around 30 players made it out to this event, providing us with updated looks and a new list of prospects to follow in an area of Wisconsin that regularly produces some of the state’s top talent.

In the week that followed this event, we produced post-event analysis that includes performance highlights inside of our Quick Hits story, a look at the traditional stats measured within our Statistical Analysis piece, batted-ball and swing metrics captured in our Positional Data Dive, and pitch data compiled in our Pitcher Data Dive.

Below is a look at all of the position players from the event with a few standouts that deserve a mention.

Luke Hurlebaus (Waunakee, 2025) provided an upside look during Tuesday’s showcase, especially on the mound. Listed at a proportional 6-foot, 180-pounds with some strength. As for his repertoire, he featured a running fastball that got up to 82.4 mph with life through the zone. He was also able to spin in a sweeping slider in the low-70s that maxed at 2,300 RPMs and complemented his fastball. He rounded out his three-pitch arsenal with an intentful changeup that played with fade and depth.

Standing at an athletic 5-foot-11, 150-pound build, INF/RHP Jackson Guerrero (Middleton, 2026) On the mound Guerrero ran his fastball up to 77.9 mph with life and arm-side run through the zone. The right-hander showed feel for the curveball, throwing it with intent and a 11/5 break, all while mixing in a changeup that flashed depth.

A couple of 2024 right-handed-pitchers from Sun Prairie West Benjamin Ketelsen and Austin Adamowski. Ketelsen whipped a fastball that topped out at 82 mph, sitting 79-81 throughout. In a methodical windup, the right-hander demonstrated his ability to mix off-speed pitches, his curveball featured 11/5 shape, while the changeup had running action to it. On the mound, Adamowski ran his fastball up to 77.7 mph while presenting feel for two off-speed pitches, a 10/4 slider and a changeup that he throws with intent.

Read on below for a look at all of the scouting reports from the day.
