Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • SSPosition Projection

10/24/2021 - All-In Membership - Atlanta, GA Colton is an athletic SS who has a promising future on the diamond. At SS, defensive abilities are solid as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are aggressive as he works around balls and plays through with his body. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. He moves well laterally and utilizes his foot quickness in covering a lot of ground in the MIF. Throws are accurate with carry but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying solid hitting / power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick (82 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing and shows a feel for the barrel. With 2 years to further develop, Colton has potential with time and room to progress his game.

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).
