12/27/2017 - Under Armour Baseball Factory Recruiting Classic (Ages 14-18) Kye continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities and he has a promising future on the diamond. At the plate, hitting potential has improved through an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Behind the dish, pop times showed in the 2.17 range with carry / accuracy on his throws. Feet work in line to his target through a clean transfer / exchange as he gets rid of the baseball quickly. Times will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. He sits low and presents a soft / sure glove, sticking balls in the zone. Athletic abilities are shown off through the blocking process but will benefit by getting his body down sooner. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and plays the game hard.

11/19/2017 - National Tryout Plus - Pearland (Houston), TX Kye is a broad, strong 2020 C/OF prospect who shows polish behind the plate. He has quick twitch actions and good balance behind the plate to block everything in the dirt to center and recover quickly. He looks the ball in to receive with a strong wrist and stick pitches in the zone for strikes. His feet are quick as he exchanges to throw accurately down to second. In the outfield, he covers lots of ground with fluid footwork and athleticism. He gets low to field and presents his hands to catch everything cleanly. At the plate, he shows a square setup with fluid actions to load and launch. He has feel for the strike zone and has a patient approach, tracking the ball well while looking for something to drive. Shortening his swing will allow him to cover the whole zone and spray hits to all fields. Kye is an intriguing prospect we look forward to watching more of.

07/18/2017 - College PREP - Highland Park (DFW), TX Kye is a talented C/OF prospect who has a versatile skill set and graduates in 2020. Behind the plate, Kye has an effective setup and tracks the baseball well. He moves well laterally with swift footwork. He receives the ball with a firm glove and does a nice job blocking when needed. Kye has a clean exchange leading into a loose arm action throwing from a low 3/4 arm slot. He has good momentum through his release showing accurate throws with good carry down to 2B. In the outfield, Kye plays with solid footwork taking effective angles to cover decent ground. He presents his glove and gets around the baseball making all the routine plays. He has a clean exchange leading into a quick arm action throwing from a high 3/4 arm slot. Kye's throws are consistently online. Offensively, Kye has a square, athletic setup with his weight in the front of his stance. He takes a short stride and lets the baseball travel. Kye has a middle of the field approach and is a contact type hitter. Overall, Kye has a well-rounded game with a solid approach and good potential to take his game to the next level.

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).
