Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date. In the OF, defensive abilities have improved as he displays smooth / fluid actions. He takes proper routes / angles in tracking down balls. Feet are active as he works to get behind balls and plays through with momentum to his target. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an uphill swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach.

07/20/2020 - National Evaluation and Tryout - Stockton (Sacramento), CA Carter continues to work hard on his skills. With the bat, this righty stands in well with centered balance getting back into a loaded position. He takes a hack, creates extension through contact and sprays the ball to all parts of the field. At 2B, he has active prep and is aggressive to come and get the GB. He tracks the ball into his mitt, makes that player and gathers well. Working on his approach (right to left) while playing through the ball more will aid in his defensive development. Only a 2025 grad - Tidwell still has a ton of time to progress and physically mature.

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).
