01/13/2023 - 2023 Baseball Factory Pre-Season All-America Tournament RJ continues to show as a prospect at the Preseason All American event. At the plate, he displays outstanding hitting abilities with excellent power potential through an athletic setup. Hands are quick (91 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He has strength in his swing and shows a feel for the barrel with power showing best to the pull side. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn.

04/24/2022 - All-In Membership - Kansas City, KS RJ is a tall, strong 1B who is a prospect on the diamond. At the plate is where he shows best displaying solid hitting abilities with well above average power potential through an open setup. Hands are quick (80 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields and has strength with gap to gap pop. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. At 1B, defensive abilities are well above average as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. He moves well laterally with range improving as he increases foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. With 2 years to further develop, RJ has potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.

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).
