Metrics testing has become a staple of the baseball recruiting world. In the past 5 years this area of the recruiting world has exploded. All players are measured through various forms of metrics testing equipment/software to see how they measure up and can now see data about their “tools”. The Metrics are now a player seperator as coaches and front offices use these important metrics to analyze players.

Each player that takes part in a Scout Day, Data Day, or does a Private Session will receive these metrics tests. Findings will be linked to your Baseball Player Report Player Profile. Players metrics will be updated each time you take part in any BPR events. We offer Private 1 on 1 sessions where we come to you or we coordinate session at facility or field.
