  • SSPosition Projection

06/18/2021 - Baseball Factory All-State Tournament (HS) Jayden continues shine on the diamond. At SS, he displays smooth/fluid actions. Feet are active but needs to play through with his body. Glove action is clean but needs to present more out front. At the plate, he shows a squared setup. Hands are quick (80 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently.

12/27/2020 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City - Session 2 Jayden is a SS/RHP that will continue to grow and develop. In the field, Jayden shows athletic and effective footwork taking a plus 1st step to the ball with agile range. He fields the ball low with a confident glove out in front of his body. He exchanges the ball with soft hands as he creates momentum to the target. His arm action is loose working from the 3/4 slot delivering the ball with accuracy. At the plate, he sets up in an open stance taking a small load to launch his swing. Jayden can improve by getting his lower half stronger. He shows good bat speed as he rotates his core showing pop to the pull side. On the mound, Jayden shows a 2-pitch mix with a FB/CB combo. the FB sits 67-68 and the CB 60-61 with 11-5 shape. His mechanics are confident as he starts square on the mound. His arm action is clean as his delivers the pitch. Jayden is young with several years to develop and we look forward to seeing his progress.

09/13/2020 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Ruther Glen (Richmond), VA Jayden is an athletic SS who has a promising future on the diamond. At SS, defensive abilities are solid as he displays smooth/athletic actions. Feet are active as he works around balls and plays through with his body. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. He shows off his athletic abilities on his feeds/turn of the double play. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows as a switch hitter but projects best as a RHH at the next level. Hands are quick (80 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap-to-gap pop. With 3 years to further develop, Jayden has potential and will get looks from college coaches as he continues 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).
