Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • Position Projection

07/07/2013 - Cape Cod Select Training & Competition (Ages 12-14) - Michael showed good potential at the Cape Cod event, especially on the mound and at the plate. As a fielder he makes routine plays but he needs to be aggressive after the ball, improve footwork/agility and long toss for arm strength/accuracy. On the mound Michael projects well, has good arm action and throws strikes. Areas for improvement are striding at his target (not closed) so he is not working across his body and using his lower half to generate power. At the plate Michael has a sound load, good lower half and he tracks the ball well but he needs to keep stride foot closed, shorten swing and extend through the ball.

06/02/2013 - Interactive Video Program - River Forest (Chicago), IL Michael is a tall, thin, 2-way player who plays SS and RHP. Defensively, Michael has good pre-pitch actions, firm hands, and his feet are playable. He catches with 2 hands, fields low, and throws with carry and accuracy to his target. On the mound, Michael has a long / easy arm action, level shoulders, and he finishes in a complete position. Offensively, Michael has a tall / square set-up, good balance, and a short square stride. He has a rhythmic / level swing and gets his lower 1/2 through. Michael is a switch hitter who is equally as good from both sides of the plate. Overall abilities can improve with work on the following. 

Defense
1. Quicker feet
2. Avoid stabbing
3. Quicken exchange
Pitching
1. More leg drive
2. Keep head still
3. Long toss
Offense
1. Load
2. Keep hands high
3. Strength

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).
