Official Scouting Report

  • OFPosition Projection

12/27/2018 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City - Session 2 (Ages 14-18) Gage is an athletic 2020 prospect who continues to show his baseball IQ and feel for the game on both sides of the ball. He has natural actions at the plate and shows bat to ball skills to put the ball in play consistently. His hands are loose with an activated load and he extends through contact to spray hits to all fields. In the outfield, he works behind the ball to play through with momentum to his target. His hands are clean and quick to exchange and release, throwing accurately. A long toss program will improve arm strength and allow him to keep runners put. Gage is an intriguing prospect we look forward to following.

09/30/2018 - College PREP - Raleigh, NC Gage is a lean, athletic OF who has a bright future on the diamond. In the OF, he displays fluid/athletic actions. Feet are aggressive as he takes proper routes/angles in tracking down balls. He works to get behind balls and plays through with momentum to his target. Range is a plus as he reads balls well off the bat and covers a lot of ground. Throws are accurate but he will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows an open setup. Hands are quick (81 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact through a line drive approach with power showing best to the pull side. With 2 years to further develop, Gage 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).
