Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • SS/RHPPosition Projection

12/27/2019 - Baseball Factory Winter Classic (Ages 12-14) Franklin continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities. Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date. At SS, defensive abilities have improved as he displays smooth / athletic actions. Feet are active and plays through balls with his body. Glove action is soft / sure and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves his foot quickness. At the plate, he shows a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. On the mound, arm strength has improved as he threw his top velocity to date at 59 mph. Fastball showed a range of 76-78 mph. Breaking ball displays 10/4 shape with gradual break. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and works hard to be the best player he can be.

10/27/2019 - Interactive Video Program - Peachtree City (Atlanta), GA Franklin is a lean, athletic, 2-way player who plays SS and RHP. Defensively, Franklin has fluid footwork, soft hands, and he fields low and athletically. He has a presentable glove, a clean exchange, and he throws with accuracy from a short arm action across the diamond. On the mound, Franklin has good balance over the rubber and a loose/clean arm circle. He keeps his eyes on target, separates his hands on time, and finishes in a complete position. Offensively, Franklin has a square stance, a short stride, and good balance. He swings aggressively, works the ball gap to gap, and he uses his lower body. Overall skills can get better with work on the following.

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).
