01/14/2022 - 2022 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament Jay is an athletic prospect in the 2025 class. He plays the field with athletic actions, is agile, and shows an impressive glove. The upside he brings at the plate makes him exciting. As he continues to develop he will flourish at the plate. With the ability to hit to all fields with and on plane bat path, as he matures the power will come.

01/15/2021 - 2021 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament Jay is a 2024 2-way player (SS/RHP) who shines in a variety of ways. At short, he showed off his arm with a 80 mph arm velocity. His cannon added with quick feet and agile range will really be on display in the future. Not only did he impress at short, but he also showed his pop off a little. His athletic set up, fast lower half, and center balance would help him make hard contact in all of his rounds. Jay stepped on the mound and showed off a strong fastball topping at 71mph. As he continues to develop we can see him expanding on his CB while adding a CH as well. Overall, Jay is a solid 2-way prospect that projects as a SS, but can get it done on the mound, we are excited to see where this game takes him in the future.

03/01/2020 - Interactive Video Program - Wilson, NC Jay is an athletic (5'5"/125) 2-way player as a SS/RHP who has a solid all-around skill-set. Defensively at SS, he maintains active prep and works quickly/fluidly into an athletic fielding position. Hands are soft/clean as he gathers well and has a smooth transfer to throw. At the plate, this righty displays an athletic setup with centered balance. He has fluid rhythm, swings the bat with plus speed and connects with some pop. On the mound, Hale has a 3-pitch mix (FB, CB, CH) coming from a high 3/4 arm slot. He works to a controlled balance point, keeps his eyes on his target and repeats his delivery well. FB tops out at 65 mph as he pounds the zone with strikes. Breaking ball has 10/4 shape with good action when released out front. Continuing to work on the following will help to unlock his potential on the diamond.

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).
