The 2023 MLB Draft Combine has provided us with a treasure trove of invaluable data to dissect and analyze. Diehard fans and scouts understand that the Combine serves as a platform for young prospects to showcase their talents, leading up to the grand stage of Major League Baseball.
Rapsodo was lucky enough to have PRO 3.0 set up during the hitting and pitching sessions of the event, so we took a look at the data collected and dove deeper into the performance of Baseball America’s Top 200 Draft Prospects.
With the help of Rapsodo's cutting-edge technology, we hope to gain valuable insights into the potential impact these prospects could have at the highest level of the game.
Here is a breakdown of the ranked players on BA’s Top 200 list who participated in this year’s Combine:
NOTE: Hitters had a minimum of at least 10 hits and pitchers had a minimum of 8 pitches.
