The GBG Vegas Scout Day took place on Saturdat, October 25th at UNLV. This event featured players exclusively from the GBG Vegas program, each aiming to display the progress they have made over the course of the busy summer schedule.

The GBG Vegas Scout Day allows our staff to evaluate prospects, while serving as an identifier for future invite-only events such as the West Coast Games, Top Prospect Games, Future Games, and more.

Today, we highlight some of the top overall statistical performers in our Data Dive article

VALD PERFORMANCE

TOP 60-YARD DASH

Traditionally, the 60-yard dash has been the in-event standard to help measure a player's speed tool. We implemented three timing gates at the 10- and 30-yard splits, to capture athletes’ quickness, explosiveness and reaction time. From there, we will calculate an athlete’s top-end speed in miles per hour. While the measurement still has its utility, the 10-yard split has started to become more and more applicable in determining the player's burst and reaction time in-game, whether that's in the outfield or on the basepaths.
