12/12/2021 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Manalapan, NJ Luis showed very well overall during his last workout with The Factory. He is a young, talented prospect with a high ceiling. Behind the plate, Luis has active footwork, a presentable glove, and he tracks the ball. He is a confident receiver, covers the 5 hole when blocking, and throws with accuracy and consistency to his target. Pop times to 2nd base lowered to 2.2 seconds. Blocking sooner and quickening his release will help improve catching abilities. At 3B, Luis has active feet, good pre-pitch actions, and he works through to his target. He picks out the right hops, his exchange is clean, and he throws with consistency across the diamond. Added urgency and a quicker release will help abilities at 3B get better. At the plate is where Luis shines. He is a strong hitter with a square stance, good balance, and solid bat ship. He has fast bat speed, a direct barrel, and he hits with power gap to gap.

01/17/2020 - Baseball Factory's Spring Training at Pirate City (Ages 12-14) Luis is a hard working, 2-way player who showed nice improvements in his game during his time in Pirate City. He increased arm velocity to 64 MPH, exit velocity to 69 MPH, and he showed a spike in power grades. Behind the plate, Luis sits in well, he tracks to his glove, and he keeps the ball in front when blocking. He replaces his footwork, his exchange is clean, and he throws with accuracy to 2nd base. On the mound, Luis has good balance, a FB that touches 61 MPH, and he lands with a proper length stride toward home plate. Offensively, Luis shows good athleticism, a closed stance, and he has a simple load. He has good balance, he centers the ball well, and he hits line drives; rotating his core properly.

12/15/2019 - Accelerated Interactive Video Program - Madison (NYC), NJ Luis is a C/3B prospect who will graduate in 2025. Behind the plate, Luis sits in a square stance and tracks the ball into his glove. He makes a clean exchange and gets rid of the ball quickly, keeping his throws accurate and on-line to the 2B bag. At 3B, Luis shows fluid footwork and is agile moving to the ball. He gets into an athletic position and fields the ball out in front of his body. He makes a clean exchange and gains momentum well on his throws, keeping them accurate with carry through his target. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a tall stance with center balance. He is smooth getting into his load and drives through well with his lower half. He takes a level swing with decent bat speed, leading to consistent line drives. Overall abilities can improve with work on the following. 

Catching
1. Blocking footwork
2. Blocking range
3. Long toss
Infield
1. Lower position
2. Stay low to throw

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).
