Last month, the Prep Baseball New Jersey staff hosted the NJ Fall ID Event at Overpeck Park in Bergen County, NJ. 25 players participated in a pro-style workout, gathering unrivaled access to data through our state-of-the-art tech partners, as well as gameplay and in-depth scouting analysis from our Prep Baseball NJ staff.

Earlier this week, we released the Statistical Analysis from the event, highlighting some of the best statistical metrics from the day as well as a Positional Data Dive and Pitching Data Dive.

Today, we will be looking at the prospects that stood out to our staff within this Takeaways story.
