NorCal Underclass Game: Positional Leaderboards


Matt Monk

   

PBR California's Underclass Games took place over the weekend with separate events in both Northern and Southern California. We got to see familiar faces and some new ones show out at both events. The Underclass Games is an event designed to identify projectable players in the classes of 2026 and 2027 before they start their spring seasons.

In Northern California, players gathered at Islanders Field in Lathrop for a pro style workout as well as a simulated game. These leaderboards give the data for the position players at the Underclass Games.

For all the data and informations on all of the players outside of the leaderboards click here.

The classic measures of fielding proficiency outside of player footwork and technique are velocity and pop times (for catchers). This is measured by our staff with the Stalker Sport II.
