Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 3B/RHPPosition Projection

09/04/2020 - MS All-Region Tournament At Carter's most recent outing with Factory, he showed as a 3B/RHP with improved measurables, showing a nice upward trend of growth! Offensively, he had a quiet head and worked the middle of the field with his approach. He was short with his stride and on-time, giving way to smooth rhythm and timing. He had centered balance and with the aforementioned quiet head, was able to make consistent contact. Over at the hot corner, he worked his feet pre-pitch and had good glove feel. He made adjustments to hops easily with his low fielding position and presented hands. On the mound, his outing was cut a little short due to an arm injury, but he showed good control and worked in-line to his target with a clean finish. In all - we enjoyed seeing Carter as always, and look forward to seeing his next steps of growth when we see him again in the future!

12/27/2019 - Baseball Factory Winter Classic (Ages 12-14) Carter is a 3B/RHP that competed at the Baseball Factory Winter Classic. At 3B, Carter shows athletic movements with effective footwork. He shows good technique on the GS/BH ball and fields athletically and low with relaxed hands. His exchanges are clean as he works to throw getting rid of the ball with a loose arm action and accuracy. As Carter grows and gets stronger his arm strength will improve. At the plate, Carter sets up in a square stance with loose hands and gets his foot down on time. He does a good job getting on plane with the pitch and shows a consistent line drive approach making hard contact. On the mound, Carter shows a 2-pitch mix with a FB/CB combo. Learning a changeup will allow him to improve his arsenal as a pitcher. Pitching, he works out of the stretch and gathers over the rubber well as he works down the mound, he lands controlled and finishes to the target. Carter is young and will continue to grow and mature.

Breaking ball displays 10/4 shape with gradual break. Control is a plus as he attacks hitters and throws strikes with all his pitches. Getting on a long toss program to develop more arm strength will aid in improving abilities on the mound. Mental makeup is a plus as he has a positive attitude, works hard, and is very coachable.

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).
