Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 1B/RHPPosition Projection

12/27/2013 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City Connor showed as a RHP and 1B at Pirate City. He was very effective on the mound during the event. On the bump, he threw two pitches - FB at 77 MPH and offspeed at 67-68 MPH. He changed speeds well and stayed directional to the dish. His arm action was free and he got good extension over the front side while using his lower half effectively. His offspeed pitch proved to be an effective pitch that projects well at the next level. Developing his front side and keeping his eyes on the target better will help him to improve on the mound. Over at first, he presented a good target, was patient to stretch and worked well around the bag. Connor needs more reps at 1B to help him with improving his footwork and feel for the position. With the stick, he was level through the zone and was patient to drive balls oppo. Keeping his head still and hands back will help him develop as a hitter in the coming years. In all - Connor is a sophomore two-way guy that has 3 seasons of high school baseball left to tune his skills for the next level. We expect him to continue to improve with hard work and experience.

07/29/2013 - College PREP - Gaffney, SC Connor is a tall, lean 1B that will graduate in 2016. Defensive abilities at 1B are solid. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. He moves well laterally, showing range to his backhand side. Hands are soft / clean / sure but needs to present hands more out front to continue to improve defensive grade. Arm strength is solid with throws showing accuracy as he gets rid of the baseball quickly but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, Holden shows a balanced setup with rhythm. Hands are quick, flashing bat speed, working to and through a level swing path, creating extension. He shows a feel for the barrel with baseball jumping off the bat when centered with power numbers improving as he learns to use his lower half more. With 3 years to further develop, Connor has a lot 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).
