Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • RHPPosition Projection

07/19/2008 - College PREP - Plymouth Meeting (Philadelphia), PA Carlos Cruz is a young athletic player with potential at the next level. His upper 80's FB is above average and he has a feel for his off speed pitches. Carlos' delivery is smooth and directional to the target as he keeps his eyes focused on the catcher. He tends to open his hips early which affects his power. Keeping them closed will allow for greater torque. Carlos looks good on the mound and has the size to fill out. With some fine tuning, he will impress a lot of coaches during his senior year.

12/27/2007 - Christmas Camp and Tournament - 2007 Cruz is a lean, athletic right handed pitcher with a strong, quick arm. He topped at 85 mph this outing, down from the 92 we saw in August 2007, but still threw the ball well considering the time of year. He was aggressive with his fastball, though he threw more to the zone than to any particular spots, and showed willingness to use his curveball and change. His curve has rolling action, and in general lacked the arm speed and snap that he used to throw his fastball. His change looked like it was thrown with a grip that was too tight, and didn't leave his hand very well. His delivery had quick tempo, though he stayed under control pretty well. He tended to lose his front shoulder early, causing him to miss most often high and to his arm side. Has room to clean up his delivery, and to improve his secondary pitches to further complement his strong arm and occasionally excellent fastball.

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).
