Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • OF/RHPPosition Projection

01/15/2010 - Under Armour Pre-Season All-America - 2010 Connor participated at the UA Preseason All-America at both positions, and improved his OF skills from 6/09. In the OF, Connor has good hands and feet, and a strong / accurate arm. His arm grade improved from 48 to 58, as the ball has great life and carry. Conner makes plays on balls hit his way, and he has solid glove side load. On the mound, Conner has good athleticism and pitchability. He has a compact delivery, repeats it well, and make use of his lower 1/2. Conner throws strikes and is a competitor on the hill. Better glove side lead, more extension, and a long toss program should help pitching numbers improve. Offensively, Conner improved his hitting and power from 45 to 48 in both categories. He has good balance and bat speed, and he tracks the ball well. Conner keeps his head on the ball, centers it well, and can hit to all fields. A more proper load, and a more level swing should help offensive numbers continue to improve.

06/20/2009 - Omaha Pro Select Training and Tournament - Week 2 Connor is a young two-way player in the OF and on the mound with a small, athletic looking body. Currently, he projects a little better on the mound where he has near above average arm strength as indicated by his top velocity of 84 mph. He will benefit by getting on a strict long toss program to aid in further developing more arm strength, raising velocities. Changeup is his best off speed pitch showing a solid feel for with nasty sink. Breaking ball displays a 12/6 downward shape with tight spin and late breaking action. He shows plus command with all his pitches as he throws strikes, attacking hitters. Foot speed is near above average as indicated by his 7.19 60 time. He utilizes his quick, athletic feet well in tracking down balls in the OF, displaying near above average defensive abilities. At the plate, Knight has solid average abilities and power through an aggressive approach. Swing path is level as his hands work direct to the baseball. Power numbers will increase as he learns to utilize his lower half more efficiently through the swing. With 2 years to further develop, Connor has a ton of potential and will catch the eyes of the collegiate coaches as he continues to improve.

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).
