Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • CPosition Projection

12/27/2014 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City - Session 2 Chiusano showed as a 1B and catcher at his most recent outing with Baseball Factory. He has a promising future on the diamond, and has active feet to work in line through a clean transfer / exchange, behind the dish. Pop times have improved as he threw his lowest time to date at 2.14. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program and works to get rid of the baseball quicker. Receiving / blocking skills show potential as being quality tools that will play well at the next level. At the plate, he continues to show improvements, and currently displays very solid hitting abilities with outstanding power potential through his athletic setup. Hands are quick, generating bat speed and he works through a level swing path, creating extension. He works to stay inside the ball, utilizing all fields and makes consistent contact as he shows a solid feel for barrel, displaying gap to gap power. At the event, he was 4 for 6 with a 2B and sac fly. Mental makeup is a plus as he has a positive attitude, works hard, and loves to compete.

10/05/2014 - College PREP - Trenton, NJ Mike showed well in his first Baseball Factory outing. He projects at both C and 1B. Behind the plate, he has a consistent 2.15-2.25 pop time with a quick release. His abundance of energy makes it easier on him to block balls in the dirt and gives him the ability to be the 'General' of the field. Working on being more fluid behind the plate as well as working from low to high will improve this backstops abilities. At 1B, he has good footwork around the bag with a quick/clean exchange. Similar to behind the plate, his ball sees carry/life to all bags as his arm works really well at the corner. Developing more lateral quickness and fielding the ball out front more will improve his skills. As a hitter, he shows plus power through a nice short swing that ends with good extension. Overall, with minor adjustments, Mike will see continued improvement moving forward, and he will be a good addition to a college program in a couple of years.

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).
