02/26/2023 - National Showcase - Lexington, SC Braden continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities on the diamond. He did show in the OF for the first time at the event. Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date. At 3B, he shows smooth / fluid actions. Feet are active but needs to attack ball more and play through with his body. Hands are clean but needs to present more out front. In the OF, he takes proper routes / angles in tracking down balls. He needs to work to get behind balls more and play through with momentum to his target. Range will increase as he continues to improve foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows a tall setup. Hands are loose and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside he ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half work well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn.

11/03/2022 - Baseball Factory Select Training & Competition at the Jackie Robinson Training Complex Braden is a switch hitting 3B/RHP in the 2028 class. In the field, he positions his body to work through the baseball and has pocket awareness. Has quick arm action from a high ¾ slot. Works hard at his position and plays with energy. On the mound, he is a competitor. He is frequently around the zone with his 3-pitch mix. His FB topped at 53 and was located well to both sides of the plate. His CB sat 48-9 and his CH sat 49-50 with deception. At the plate, his right side is further along than his left. Begins in a tall set up and uses a short stride to gain his launch position. Catches the ball out in front of the plate and can drive the baseball when he is on the barrel. Scouts loved his energy and felt he is a tremendous teammate. They feel once he develops further athleticism, he will blossom on the diamond.

04/03/2022 - Official Player Development Membership - Columbia, SC Braden continues to shine on the diamond with his baseball abilities. He did show on the mound for the first time at the event. At 3B, he displays smooth /fluid actions. Glove action is soft / sure and presents well out front. Feet are active but needs to attack more and play through with his body. He moves well laterally with range improving as he increases foot quickness. At the plate, he continues to show as a switch hitter but projects best as a RHH. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 50-51 mph with sink. Breaking ball shows 11/5 shape with across break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup with sink. Stock on the mound will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program.

10/23/2021 - Mid-Atlantic Regional Offensive Skills Weekend (Ages 12-14) Braden showed as a switch hitter at the event, but projects best as an RHH where he has improved his hitting / power potential. Hands are loose and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Lower half works well through the swing and shows a feel for the barrel. Swing from left side is stiff and still in developmental phase.

08/15/2021 - All-In Membership - Kannapolis (Charlotte), NC Garrett is a lean 3B/C who has a promising future on the diamond. At 3B, he displays smooth / clean actions. Feet are active in working around and playing through with his body. Glove action is clean but needs to present more out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing great pocket awareness sticking pitches. He uses his body through the blocking process but needs to work to get body down sooner. Pop times showed in 4.94 range with accuracy on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss. At the plate, he shows a closed setup. Hands are loose and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent contact through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. With 7 years to further develop, Braden has potential with time and room 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).
