Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • Position Projection

12/27/2023 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City - Session 2 Connor continues to impress with his baseball abilities at the Pirate City Christmas tournament. In the OF, he reads ball well off the bat and covers ground. Feet are aggressive as he takes proper routes / angles in tracking down balls. Glove action is firm and works out front. At the plate, he shows as a switch hitter with similar abilities from both sides. Hands are loose and work on plane to the ball. He makes consistent contact through a line drive approach. On the mound, arm strength has improved as he threw his top velocity to date at 76 mph. Fastball shows good arm side run. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with good tilt. He maintains arm speed on his changeup with slight sink. Slider is harder with tight spin and short break. He is poised on the mound with good composure.

09/24/2023 - National Showcase - Jacksonville , FL CJ is a lean LHP/OF who has a promising future on the diamond. On the mound, delivery is sound and repeatable allowing his quick arm action to work well to the plate. Fastball shows a range of 71-72 mph. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup with sinking action. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program and throws more strikes. In the OF, defensive abilities are solid as he displays smooth / fluid actions. Feet are active as he works to get behind ball and plays through with momentum to his target. Glove action is firm and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. At the plate, he shows as a switch hitter with similar abilities from both sides. Hands are quick (80 mph exit velocity) and work through an aggressive swing path. He makes consistent contact through a line drive approach with power showing best to the pull side. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. With 4 years to further develop, CJ has a lot of potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress on the mound.

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).
