O'Hare Preseason ID: Pitcher Analysis


Illinois Scouting Staff

On Sunday, February 8th, our staff hosted the O'Hare Preseason ID at Bo Jackson's Elite Sports in Bensenville, IL. This packed event is annually one of our largest and most talented, with this year proving no different. There were nearly 150 players in attendance, with a number of them impressing our staff with the gains they have made over the off-season.

Today, we are continuing our post-event rollout with a look at every single pitcher from the day, along with a Top-15 ranking of who our staff thought showed the best on the day, below.
