Official Scouting Report

  • Position Projection

Exclusive College Recruiting Program Will Burgess is a 6’ 5 transfer portal LHP/OF from High Point University. Featuring an athletic and lean frame with body control and loose, easy actions to his game. He features a FB that works in the 87-91 MPH range and will touch as high as 92 MPH and shows run to his arm side paired with a sharp Cutter in the 82-84 range with late action. His delivery is easy with good arm speed and the ball shows life through the zone. Also features a CB/CHG that he can throw for strikes as well. Burgess is a top end athlete who runs a 6.7 60 and was a CF in high school with a smooth LH swing that gets through the baseball with authority and has generated exit velocities over 95+ MPH and has pull side power with ability to use the whole field. An impressive LHP prospect who shows the true potential to be a 2-way player adding athleticism and LH bat to a lineup with multiple profiles on the mound as a potential LH starter or LH reliever.

06/23/2020 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Frederick, MD Will is a projectable (6'5"/175) LHP/OF (2022) who has a ton of upside. On the mound, he is loose easy arm action with a repeatable delivery. FB sits 84-88mph as he can hit spots. CB has hard bite breaking into a right handed hitter. He is around the zone with all of his pitches and will challenge hitters with his 4-pitch arsenal. As a hitter, Will has loose levers and easy power. He does a great job keeping his bat in the strike zone for a long time and shows pop to all fields (exit velocity = 90mph). He reminds us of a young John Olerud at the plate. Will has potential to play at a high level both as a position player and pitcher in College.

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).
