08/21/2021 - Summer Pro Training Experience - MD (HS) Aidan continues to shine on the diamond. At the plate, this LHH shows an advanced approach through a tall and athletic setup. Big presence in the box with a nice and fluid load leading to consistent contact and pull side power. On the mound, Aidan gathers over the rubber and is fluid separating his hands. He works with a clean arm and strides inline toward the plate, finishing with a controlled landing. Aidan shows a three pitch mix with his fastball topping out at 84 mph with arm side run. Breaking ball sits from 63-65mph with sharp 11-5 break. Changeup sits from 72-74 mph with arm side run as he throws with deceptive arm speed. Overall, Aidan is a talented prospect who has the skill set to contribute at the next level.

06/18/2021 - Baseball Factory All-State Tournament (HS) Aidan continues to shine on the diamond. On the mound, he gathers over the rubber and separates his hands on time. He works with a loose arm and extends through on his release, staying inline towards the plate. Fastball showed in the low 80 range. Breaking ball displays 1/7 shape with gradual break. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows an open setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Power increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently.

12/13/2020 - National Evaluation and Tryout - Manalapan, NJ This LHP continues to progress and show well on the mound. He has a projectable frame with a 4-pitch arsenal to challenge hitters with. Arm works loose/free as he gets good extension through release. FB cracks the mitt now topping out at 85 mph. Cutter has good spin - 65-68 mph as it compliments his FB well. He repeats his delivery and works the ball to all parts of the zone. Aidan has a ton of upside and will give his team a chance every time that he toes the rubber.

09/04/2020 - HS All-Region Tournament Aidan continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities. On the mound, he showed a controlled, repeatable delivery, allowing his arm action to work well to the plate. Arm strength has improved as he threw his top velocity to date at 81 mph. Fastball showed tailing action. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his split finger with sinking action. Off speed stuff show as quality pitches that will get outs. Control is solid as he attacks hitters and throws strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program.

04/28/2019 - College PREP - Manalapan, NJ Aidan is a tall LHP prospect who will graduate in 2021. On the mound, Aidan gathers over the rubber and separates his hands on time. He extends through his release and finishes square to the plate. Aidan shows a three pitch mix with his fastball topping out at 66mph with tailing action. Breaking ball sits at 54mph with 1-7 break. Changeup sits from 56-57mph with cutting action as he throws with deceptive arm speed. Loosening his arm action can help Aidan improve as a pitcher. With two more years to develop, Aidan has the time and potential to further progress his skills on the field.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
