Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 1B/RHPPosition Projection

11/06/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Plano (DFW), TX Izayah is a 1B/RHP who will graduate in 2023. Medium frame stocky build with thick lower half and strength present. At 1B, he showed good bag awareness and ability to scoop balls. Throws from a 3/4 release point, with ability to spin glove side, and has a quick release. On the mound, he has a clean leg lift and keeps eyes on target throughout delivery. He is a coachable kid with a desire to get better. He attacks hitters with a FB that sits 64-67mph, a 9/3 shaped slider, and a changeup that he throws with FB arm speed. At the plate, he starts with an athletic and square stance. Showed smooth timing to his swing and tries to separate his hands. He has a good lower half turn and keeps his weight between his knees. Hit balls consistently to the pull side with a bat exit velocity up to 85mph. With another season of development, we foresee Izayah making huge strides on the baseball field.

01/21/2022 - Baseball Factory Spring Training in Arizona (HS) Izayah is a 2023 prospect out of Chandler, TX who continues to shine with his baseball abilities. He did show on the mound for the first time at the event. At the plate, he shows an open setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. At the event, he was 3 for 3 with a 2B. At 1B, feet are active as he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is clean is and presents well out front. On the mound, he works to a controlled balance point and has a smooth delivery. Fastball showed a range of 59-62 mph. Breaking ball displays 3/9 shape with across break. Control is solid as he attacks hitters and throws strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for Izayah as he enters his junior baseball season.

10/17/2021 - All-In Membership - Grapevine (DFW), TX Izayah is a 1B/OF who will graduate in 2023. At the plate is where he shows best, displaying solid power potential through an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He has strength in his swing and makes consistent contact with power showing best to the pull side. Lower half works well through the swing and shows a feel for the barrel. At 1B, he shows smooth/fluid actions. He displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are clean but needs to present more out front. In the OF, he takes proper routes/angles in tracking down balls. He needs to work to get behind to play through with momentum to his target. He moves well laterally with range increasing as he improves foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. With 2 years to further develop, Izayah has potential with time and room to progress his game.

09/23/2017 - FDI Hitting Accelerated Training Weekend (12-14) Izayah is a coachable player who worked hard on his skills during his time at the Hitting Accelerated Training Weekend. At the plate, this RHH sets up in and open stance and leads well with his lower half, producing solid contact to his pull side. Izayah can improve as a hitter by taking a shorter stride and by working a smoother load into his swing. With six more years to develop, Izayah has the time and potential to further progress his skills at the plate.

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).
