  • CPosition Projection

06/18/2021 - Baseball Factory All-State Tournament (HS) James continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities with a bright future on the diamond. Behind the plate, feet are active as he works in line through a clean transfer/exchange. Pop times have improved as he threw his lowest time to date at 2.02 with carry (81 mph velocity) on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. He shows a squared setup and presents a soft mitt out front and utilizes his body through the blocking process, centering balls well out front. At the plate, he continues to shine through an athletic setup. Hands are quick (88 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent hard contact and drives the ball to all gaps. At the event, he was 4 for 8 with 3 2B.

09/13/2020 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Troy (Albany), NY James is an athletic catcher who will graduate in 2021. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing great pocket awareness sticking pitches. He utilizes his body well through the blocking process, but needs to get down sooner and improve lateral movements. Pop times showed in the 2.19 range with accuracy/carry on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact through a line drive approach with power showing best to the pull side. James 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).
