Mississippi Summer ID: Pitcher Reports
September 4, 2024
RAYMOND, MS - The Mississippi Summer ID was held on Saturday, August 17th at Hinds CC in Raymond, MS. This event was an open event that consisted of prospects from the 2025-2028 classes across various parts of Mississippi. These players went through extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman, and much more. Pitchers were able to throw in a bullpen setting and were able to get numbers and metrics via TrackMan. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing at the event.
Concluding our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look at scouting reports from the event. Next, we look at the scouting reports on all pitchers who attended the Mississippi Summer ID.
