Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • OFPosition Projection

04/23/2023 - National Showcase - Lake Charles, LA Japhen is a 2023 RHH OF prospect with a tall, muscular frame at 6'1" 190 pounds. In the OF, he shows off quick feet and plus speed, helping him cover lots of ground to all angles. He does a great job of getting centered behind the ball and making all the routine plays. He gets a good glove angle which helps him execute a very clean exchange. Works hard to make strong, accurate throws to his targets/cutoffs. At the plate, he starts in a squared, athletic stance, gets a good load and has a short stride to the pitcher. He does a great job of tracking the ball and recognizing pitch selection. He shows off quick hands and fast bat speed, which helps him make hard contact to the pull side. Works hard to get his lower half more involved. Overall, Japhen is an exciting prospect for the next level!

08/02/2018 - Baseball Factory Pro Select Training at Historic Dodgertown (Ages 12-14) Japhen is a broad, strong 3B/OF prospect who works hard on the field. He can pick it at the hot corner with range and solid hands to make plays. Footwork is efficient moving laterally to get to the ball quickly. He presents his hands to field and shows multiple arm slots to throw on the run. At the dish, he shows fast bat speed and flashes big power potential. He works on a direct path to the ball and makes consistent, hard contact to all fields. Activating his hands will keep them moving to generate more energy and power. Japhen is a prospect we definitely want to keep an eye on.

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).
