09/02/2018 - National Tryout Plus - Troy (Albany), NY Jacek is an athletic C prospect who continues to showcase his skills on the field. Behind the plate, Jacek shows fluid footwork and covers up well when blocking. He presents a good target to the pitcher and makes a clean exchange to throw, getting good carry through 2B. Jacek can improve as a C by setting up square to the pitcher. At the plate, this RHH sets up in an open stance and takes his stride on time. He shows a smooth rhythm and maintains center balance. He takes a direct swing with fast bat speed which leads to hard contact and line drives. Jacek can improve as a hitter by getting into his load more.

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).
