  • Position Projection

05/28/2020 - 2020 Under Armour Showcase: Baseball Factory's National South Rob is an outstanding SS prospect who performed very well at the BF South Showcase. He displayed his usual excellent instincts and soft hands in the infield. He's light on his feet, puts himself into position to make plays and has a quick exchange/release to allow him to finish plays across the diamond. At the plate Rob was selectively aggressive - looking to attack his pitch in the live at bats. His quick hands were on display during batting practice and the live at bats as he has a knack for finding the barrel and he uses the whole field well. Overall, there is a lot to like in this prospect who can stick at a premium position.

10/26/2019 - 2019 Under Armour Showcase: Baseball Factory's Futures South Rob continues to show as a top prospect in the MIF. At the plate, he has strong/centered balance with fluid rhythm to load. He takes an absolute hack, crushing the ball to deep parts of the park. At SS, he has plus lateral range, working from the ground-up with smooth actions. Transfer is quick as he fires strong throws zipping (92 mph velocity) across the diamond. A projectable SS, Rob will play at a very high level and make an immediate impact.

05/28/2019 - 2019 Under Armour Showcase: Baseball Factory's National South Rob is an athletic RHH MIF that shows as a top prospect on the diamond. A leadoff type, hands are quick (84 mph exit velocity) as he squares the ball up consistently driving it on a line. Defensively, he takes a quick first step (6.91 60 time) and has plus lateral range. He creates angles around the GB with fluid actions. DP turns are quick with zip (90 mph velocity) on his throws. Defensive abilities are outstanding as he shows big play potential. With 2 years to further develop, Rob has a ton of upside and possesses the skill-set that will play at a very high level.

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).
