Official Scouting Report

  • OFPosition Projection

02/07/2010 - College PREP - Houston, TX Kauffman is now a class 5 type player as he continues to improve his baseball tools. Arm strength has improved as he topped out at 84 mph at the arm strength station. Arm slot is over the top with throws showing carry and accuracy into his target. Offensively is where Daniel has improved the most. Swing path is short, direct and level as he works to keep hands inside the ball, utilizing all fields. He shows a feel for the barrel with baseball jumping off his bat when centered.

08/05/2009 - Pirate City World Series - Session 2 Daniel continues to show steady improvements in his baseball abilities. At the plate is where he has improved the most, now showing slightly above average abilities with near average power through a balanced approach. He works to keep hands inside the ball, utilizing all fields as he makes consistent contact. He was 2 for 10 at the event. Defensive abilities are solid in the OF as he takes proper routes and angles in tracking down balls in the OF. He made a couple of great catches during the tournament, which showed his athleticism and natural feel for the game. He works to get behind to play through with momentum to his target.

05/17/2009 - College PREP - San Antonio, TX Daniel is an OF with a thin, athletic looking body that shows projection as he continues to physically mature. Foot speed is solid average and he would benefit by getting on a speed / agility program to improve foot quickness for the next level. Feet are active and aggressive in taking proper routes and angles in tracking down balls in the OF. He needs to work in getting behind fly balls more to play through with momentum to target. Defensive abilities in the OF are solid average. Arm strength is slightly above average and he must get on a strict long toss program to aid in further developing more arm strength with carry. At the plate, Kauffman has average abilities with below average power. He shows good balance and gets his body into a strong launch position but drags the bat through the zone, creating slow bat speed. He works to keep hands inside the ball to utilize all fields. Power numbers will increase as more overall body strength is developed. Daniel has abilities with a lot of room 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).
