02/26/2023 - National Showcase - Lake Zurich (Chicago), IL Ben improved in nearly every statistical category since we last saw him two months ago at the Baseball Factory Recruiting Classic. Lower half strength has improved resulting in 3 additional MPH on his throws now sitting at 85mph. Know-how and confidence behind the dish are evident. Flexibility is a plus resulting in active footwork and quickness in his ability to deaden and get to balls in the dirt. Exit velocities have improved now up to 85mph at the plate with a middle approach and a decent rhythm. With three high school seasons in front of him, Sullivan will definitely catch the eyes of the collegiate ranks in the coming years.

12/27/2022 - Baseball Factory Recruiting Classic Benjamin is a solid catching prospect in the 2025 class. Scouts loved his energy and leadership behind the plate. He begins in an athletic and relaxed stance. He is quiet in his receiving and sits under the baseball. He replaces his feet well on his throws and gains a high ¾ slot. His feeds have life (2.20 pop) and carry to the bag. Blocks well and positions his body to defend the ball. At the plate he is disciplined and uses the middle of the field well. He has an athletic base and controllable actions. His swing is simple and repeatable. Shows line drive production and can drive balls to the gap. Had competitive game at-bats (4 hits) and showed strong barrel feel. Overall, Benjamin is a player to watch in the 2025 class.

10/30/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Indianapolis, IN Benjamin is a tall and athletic catcher in the 2025 class. Behind the plate, he has active feet and a strong base. Moves well from side to side and sinks his hip into an athletic position. Works from the ground up and receives the bottom of the baseball with a soft hand. His exchanges are clean and uses long and loose arm action from a high ¾ slot. His feeds are accurate and online (2.10) to the target. At the plate, he generates hard contact (84 exit velo) with gap-to-gap production. Maintains solid body control and keeps his weight inside his feet. Gaining more separation in his load can supply additional power to his swing. Overall, Benjamin is a solid backstop with a plus bat. He has a very bright future and a player to keep an eye on.

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).
