Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • CPosition Projection

02/20/2022 - All-In Membership - Atlanta, GA Sam is a C who will graduate in 2022. Tall frame strong build with strength present. Behind the dish, showed efficient footwork, with flexible hips, and plays with good energy. Sets up in a low/square primary position, with an easy sway, working his thumb under and keeping balls in the zone. Creates good blocking angles, while covering the 5-hole, and is quick to recover. He gains ground to second base, with a quick/clean transfer, and creates momentum to his target. Made accurate/on-line throws from a high 3/4 arm slot, with a quick release, and an arm velocity up to 82mph with a best pop time of 2.1 seconds. At the plate, he hits from an upright and square stance. Showed quick hands, with a good bat angle at contact, and has an all fields approach. He hits into a firm frontside, with good hip rotation, and a fast barrel through the hitting zone. Hit balls hard into both gaps with a bat exit velocity up to 84mph. As he continues to develop and mature, we foresee Sam having a bright future on the baseball field.

10/24/2021 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Atlanta, GA Sam is a solid catcher who has a promising future on the diamond. Behind the plate, feet are active as he works in line through a clean transfer / exchange. Pop times showed in the 2.07 range with accuracy / carry (81 mph velocity) on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. He shows a squared setup and presents a soft mitt out front and utilizes his body through the blocking process. Receiving / blocking skills show as quality tools that will play well. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying solid hitting / power potential through a closed setup. Hands are quick and work through level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing and maintains balance. Sam has a lot of potential and will get looks from the college 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).
