Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • SSPosition Projection

12/27/2012 - Pirate City Christmas Camp and Tournament Joshua improved his abilities on the mound during his time at Pirate City. His FB now tops out at 75 mph and shows slight downward movement. He repeats his delivery well and is very mechanically sound. He fills up the zone with strikes and makes the hitters work. Continuing to get extension out in front will help velocities to climb. Defensively in the INF, he displays good footwork and decent lateral range. Offensively, he remains disciplined and only swings at pitches in his zone. He makes consistent contact through a short/on-plane swing path. He showed aggressiveness and good base-running instincts. Joshua has a desire to learn, a great attitude and is very coachable.

10/14/2012 - College PREP - Hoover (Birmingham), AL Joshua is an athletic SS/RHP that will graduate in 2014. Currently, he projects best at SS for the next level. Foot speed is solid as indicated by his 7.24 60 time. Feet are quick, athletic as he works around balls and plays through well with his body. He moves well laterally, displaying range in the MIF while presenting soft / clean / sure hands in making all the plays. Throws are accurate with life and on line carry across the diamond as he gets rid of the baseball quickly. At the plate, Sullivan shows a balanced approach with rhythm. Hands are quick, flashing bat speed through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact with power numbers improving as he learns to use his lower half more. On the mound, fastball shows a range of 69-71 mph. Breaking ball is a spinner with no real shape as he needs to work to stay on top of pitch and create more extension. He maintains arm speed on his changeup, showing a feel for with fading action. He throws a knuckleball that displays tumbling action but drops arm slot, tipping off pitch to hitters. With 2 years to further develop, Joshua has potential and will catch the eyes of the collegiate coaches as he continues to improve.

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).
