Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • OF/1BPosition Projection

01/16/2015 - Baseball Factory National Spring Training at Pirate City Bailey is a 1B/RHP'er that graduates in 2018. In the box, he hits with a balanced setup and drives the barrel through on a level path. He has decent timing, but will benefit from allowing the ball to travel and hitting it where it is pitched. On the bump, Bailey does a good job of working the ball downhill after getting to a solid contact point. He separates on time and has shows good direction towards the plate. In order to improve in the future, Bailey needs to work on finishing his pitches better and extending his stride to unlock more velocity. At 1B, Bailey displays good range to his glove side, has good footwork around the bag and gets rid of the ball quickly on double play feeds. The implementation of a structured long toss program will increase his arm strength. Overall, with 3 more years to continue to improve his game, Bailey looks to have a bright future.

10/12/2014 - College PREP - Hoover (Birmingham), AL Bailey is a tall, athletic RHP/1B that will graduate in 2018. Foot speed is above average as indicated by his 7.27 60 time. At 1B, defensive abilities are slightly above average, displaying clean / smooth actions. He shows proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are soft / clean and he consistently showed the ability to pick balls out of the dirt, saving throws. Defensive grade will continue to improve as he increases foot quickness and presents hands more out front. Throws are accurate with carry but will benefit by building more arm strength and work to get rid of the ball quicker. At the plate, he shows an athletic setup with balance. Hands are loose and works through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact, mainly to the pull side. Hitting grade will continue to improve as he works to keep hands inside the ball, utilizing all fields. Power numbers will continue to increase as he learns to load and use his lower half more efficiently. On the mound, fastball shows a range of 72-75 mph. Breaking ball displays 10/4 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup but needs to develop a better feel for and movement on pitch. Command / control is a solid as he throws strikes with his fastball. Stock on the mound will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength. With 4 years to further develop, Bailey has potential and will catch the eyes of the collegiate coaches as he continue to improve.

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).
