Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • C/2BPosition Projection

06/16/2023 - National Showcase - Fresno, CA Josh continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing great pocket awareness sticking pitches. He uses his body through the blocking process, centering balls well out front. Receiving / blocking skills show as outstanding tools that will play well at the next level. Pop times have improved as he threw his lowest time to date at 2.25 with accuracy on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. At 2B, defensive abilities have improved as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are active as he attacks ball and plays through with his body. Glove action is clean and presents out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. At the plate, he continues to shine through a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn.

02/27/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Visalia, CA Joshua is a 2024 catcher with an athletic frame. As a young catcher behind the dish, there are some innate qualities he currently possesses that make him a natural at the position. Some of those qualities are as follows; active feet, glove presentation, and being quick to his feet after block and recover. In addition, he possesses a good framing technique. With strength gains over the next two years, the arm strength will improve and add to his toolbox as a catcher. At the plate, he has a line-drive approach and squares balls up consistently. Does a good job working through the inside of the ball.

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).
