Birmingham Preseason ID: Pitcher Reports
January 12, 2026
BIRMINGHAM, AL - The Birmingham Preseason ID opened the 2026 Preseason Event Tour on Sunday, January 4th at StrongBox Indoor in Birmingham, AL. This open event featured prospects from the 2026-2030 classes and featured a pro-style workout for all players in attendance. Position players participated in batting practice with full data capture through TrackMan, Blast Motion, Vizual Edge testing, and more, while pitchers threw simulated bullpens to generate detailed metrics including velocity, spin rate, and horizontal and vertical movement. Several familiar names continued to build on prior performances, while a number of new prospects emerged, making a strong first impression and firmly putting themselves on our radar.
Today we wrap up our post-event coverage by taking a look at all of the pitchers from the event.
