Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 3B/RHPPosition Projection

06/23/2023 - Baseball Factory Select Training at the College World Series Max is a 2027 3B/RHP who improved his skills during the BF Select Training at The College World Series. At 3B he starts in a relaxed ready position on the balls of his feet. He closes distance on batted balls and replaces his feet during the throwing process. He fields from a square fielding position with hands out front. Made accurate throws to first base from a high 3/4 arm slot and an arm velocity up to 60mph. On the mound he has simple delivery and confident demeanor. He works with good tempo and has a controlled landing. He attacks hitters with a FB that topped out at 55mph with plus command. In 2 innings of work, he struck out 2 batters and didn't allow a hit. At the plate he hits from an athletic and even stance with high hand set. He separates his hands and takes an aggressive hack. Rotates the lower half well and shows ability to control the barrel. In live game action he reached base 4 times with 1 single and 3 base on balls. Max worked hard and made huge stride during his week in Omaha. We look forward to seeing him at another event in the near future.

03/05/2023 - National Showcase - Tomball (Houston), TX Max is a C/3B who will graduate in 2027. A young/developing player with some strength present and plenty of time to add strength throughout. Primary C, sets up in a low fielding position, with an easy sway, working his thumb under and keeping balls in zone. Creates good blocking angles, while tucking his chin, and smothers the ball. He gains ground to second base, with clean transfers, and made accurate/on-line throws. Throws from a high 3/4 arm slot, with a short arm action, and an arm velocity of 60mph with a best pop time of 3.1 seconds. In the infield, starts with active feet and a good pre-pitch routine. Plays under the baseball, with ability to pick out hops, and fields the ball out front. Clean transfers into an over-the-top release point with accurate/on-line throws across the diamond. A right-handed hitter, hits from a tall and open stance. Level head enables to track pitches well and gets on-plane early. A selective hitter who knows the strike zone and showed good barrel control. Made contact to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 58mph. With 4 years of continued growth and development, we see Max making huge strides on the baseball field.

08/08/2021 - All-In Membership - Tomball (Houston), TX Max is a 3B/RHP who will graduate high school in 2027. A young/developing player who has plenty of time to add strength. At 3B, he showed active feet and ability to center baseball. Fields from a square fielding position with hands out front. Accurate throws to first base, with a long arm action in the back, and working into a high 3/4 release point. Made all the routine plays during his workout. On the mound, Max did a good job of picking up mitt and finishing his delivery in a good fielding position. He was around the zone with all 3 of his pitches. He throws a FB that sits 49-50mph, a 10/4 shaped breaking ball, and a developing changeup. This right-handed hitter hits from an even and athletic stance. Quiet head and level eyes enable him to track pitches well. Flat barrel through the hitting zone with a high finish. Sprayed the ball to all fields with a bat exit velocity of 61mph during BP.

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).
