07/28/2020 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City - Session 1 (Ages 14-18) Preston continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities. He did show on the mound for the first time at the event. Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date, now a 6.85 runner. At SS, he displays clean / smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork as he works to square ground balls and plays through with his body. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. At the plate, he continues to shine through an open setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 74-77 mph with cutting action. Breaking ball displays 10/4 shape with loose spin and gradual break. He maintains arm speed and shows a feel for pitch with sinking action. Control is solid as he attacks hitters and throws strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he has a positive attitude, works hard, and is very coachable.

05/23/2020 - All-In Membership - Columbia, SC Preston is an athletic SS who has a ton of talent. Defensively, he displays quick/active prep footwork and moves well on the balls of his feet. Lateral range is a plus as he can make the tough plays to his right and left look easy. Hands are soft/sure as he gathers smoothly and has a quick transfer/exchange to throw. With the bat, this RHH maintains a balanced approach with rhythm to load. Quick hands whip the barrel to and through the zone as he connects and creates consistent/hard contact. He hits the ball where it's pitched and sprays it to all parts of the field. This 2022 MIF prospect can make things happen in a variety of ways and is a definitely a player to keep an eye on.

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).
