Madison Preseason ID: Positional Data Dive


Josh Fields
Wisconsin Staff

On Mar. 12, the PBR Wisconsin staff hosted the Madison Preseason ID at GRB Academy in Windsor, WI. This event featured around 150 prospects, most of whom are Wisconsin natives, and allowed our staff an opportunity to get an in-depth look at the players in attendance.

Wednesday, we published our Quick Hits from the event. Thursday, we broke down the top measurable data performers from the event with our Statistical Analysis. Today, we will take a further in-depth look at the top positional players with the help of our tech partnerships, broken down by the categories down below:

BLAST

With the help of our Blast Motion sensors, we're analyzing the swing metrics measured at this open showcase.

HAND SPEED (AVERAGE)

Rank Name State School Class Pos Hand Speed (avg)
1 Cameron St. John WI Altoona High 2025 RHP 28.0 mph
2 Sawyer Deering WI Kimberly 2025 RHP 24.9 mph
3 Logan Dunn WI Wautoma 2024 OF 24.4 mph

9 Jake Jurkacek IL Warren Township 2024 2B 23.1 mph
10 John Hadley WI Sun Prairie East 2024 OF 23.0 mph

Hand Speed: The observed speed as measured on the handle of the bat (measured six inches from the knob of the bat). Peak Hand Speed will occur prior to the moment of impact, very close to the commit time in the swing when the wrists unhinge.

BAT SPEED (AVERAGE)

Rank Name State School Class Pos Bat Speed (avg)
1 Cameron St. John WI Altoona High 2025 RHP 83.0 mph
2 Logan Dunn WI Wautoma 2024 OF 76.2 mph
3 Lucas Koskey WI De Pere 2025 3B 75.7 mph

9 Sawyer Deering WI Kimberly 2025 RHP 72.9 mph
10 Carter Kutz WI Hartford Union 2025 3B 72.0 mph

Bat Speed: The observed speed of the sweet spot of the bat at impact. The sweet spot of the bat is measured six inches from the tip of the bat.

ROTATIONAL ACCELERATION (AVERAGE)

Rank Name State School Class Pos Rot. Acc (avg)
1 Cameron St. John WI Altoona High 2025 RHP 29.5 g
2 Jacob Garth WI Stevens Point Area 2024 2B 27.7 g
3 Logan Dunn WI Wautoma 2024 OF 27.7 g
4 Jake Jurkacek IL Warren Township 2024 2B 27.5 g
5 Sawyer Deering WI Kimberly 2025 RHP 25.9 g
6 Nicholas Guidici WI Monona Grove 2024 OF 25.6 g

Body Rotation: A swing that has the appropriate relative contributions of body and bat rotations is an efficient and Powerful swing that maintains proper sequencing. An efficient baseball swing is one in which the body creates the initial movements, which is then transferred to the arms and out to the bat, thereby maximizing Bat Speed through this proximal-to-distal kinematic sequencing movement pattern.

VISUAL EDGE

A look at the top Vizual Edge scores from the event.

EDGE SCORE

Rank Name State School Class Pos Edge Score
1 Levi Watts WI Appleton North 2025 OF 91.57
2 Jaxon Clayton WI Brookfield Central 2025 SS 87.87
3 Lucas Koskey WI De Pere 2025 3B 86.70

9 Will St.Clair WI Neenah 2024 C 83.66
10 Samuel Mommer WI St. Thomas More 2024 C 83.43

The Edge Score is a comprehensive score out of 100 that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing athletes, parents, coaches and scouts with a benchmark number for assessing an athlete’s overall visual ability. In general the higher the Edge Score, the higher chance of athletic success. Think of the Edge Score as the 'Sixth Metric' in the standard Five-Tools that make up a ball player.

The average Edge Score for the 2020 MLB Draft Class was 79.3 (of hitters who completed a Vizual Edge test). MLB players we've worked with typically show stronger scores, with elite hitters scoring consistently above 87.0 on their Edge Score.
