06/18/2021 - Baseball Factory All-State Tournament (HS) Colton is a 1B/LHP prospect who showcased his skills during the All-State Tournament. In the field, Colton makes the routine plays and makes accurate throws to his target. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a square stance and takes a short stride. He is smooth to load and works through a direct swing, producing loud line drives. On the mound, Colton gathers over the rubber and separates his hands on time. He works with a loose arm and finishes with a controlled landing. Colton operates with a two pitch mix with his fastball topping out at 67mph with tailing action. Breaking ball sits from 54-56mph with 1-7 break. Overall, Colton is a 2023 prospect who has the time and potential to further build upon his skills on the field.

03/21/2021 - National Evaluation and Tryout - Frisco (DFW), TX Colton continues to shine on the diamond. At 1B, he displays smooth, athletic actions. Feet are active as he displays proper foot work around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is clean but needs to present earlier and more out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. At the plate, he shows a tall setup. Hands are quick (80 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact through a level swing path with power showing best to the pull side. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. On the mound, FB ranges from 58-60 mph with tailing action. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup but throws too hard, resembling fastball. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program.

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).
