Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • OF/SSPosition Projection

01/12/2018 - 2018 Baseball Factory All-America Pre-Season Rookie Tournament Kaden is an athletic and talented 2022 SS prospect. At SS, Kaden has efficient footwork and shows the ability to create angles to the ball. He has a quick first step and makes good throws to the bases. Continuing to present a low/early glove and working from the ground up will allow him to make the routine play more consistently. At the plate, Kaden starts in an athletic stance and loads his hands back into the drive position. He keeps a quiet head and has a middle approach. Kaden will continue to improve with experience and we hope to see his progress in the future.

09/24/2017 - Interactive Video Program - Beverly Hills (Detroit), MI Kaden is a quick SS/OF who can play the game. Defensively at SS, he shows lateral quickness with plus range and works into an athletic fielding position. He fields GB's smoothly with his backhand and gives accurate feeds on double plays. In the OF, he makes fluid cuts/angles as he works behind the fly ball. He gets rid of the ball quickly and makes accurate, on-line throws to his target. On offense, Kaden is a line-drive type hitter. He lets the ball travel, swings on-plane through the zone and drive pitches from gap to gap. Overall abilities in his game will improve with work on the following. 

Infield
1. Glove presentation
2. Work around GB more
3. Arm strength (long toss)
Outfield
1. Don't short arm 
2. Quicker footwork
Offense
1. Improve bat speed
2. Lower 1/2 drive 
3. Create hard contact

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).
